Why there's no counter or cupboard space in the pantry either

Bold the ones you have and use at least once a year, italicize the ones you have and don't use, strike through the ones you have had but got rid of.

I wonder how many pasta machines, breadmakers, juicers, blenders, deep fat fryers, egg boilers, melon ballers, sandwich makers, pastry brushes, cheese knives, electric woks, miniature salad spinners, ( Read more... )

We have a meat thermometer. Also a piping bag, somewhere.

I... wasn't aware there was a specific thing for boiling an egg (other than a pot).

You'd be astounded the twee little devices they come up with for cooking individual eggs.

I should do something about your cake stand issue...

Yup. From your wedding.

as for the list:
pasta machines, breadmakers, juicers, blenders, deep fat fryers, egg boilers, melon ballers, sandwich makers, pastry brushes, cheese knives, electric woks, miniature salad spinners, griddle pans, jam funnels*, meat thermometers, filleting knives, egg poachers, cake stands, garlic crushers, margarita glasses, tea strainers, bamboo steamers, pizza stones, coffee grinders, milk frothers, piping bags, banana stands, fluted pastry wheels, tagine dishes, conical strainers, rice cookers, steam cookers, pressure cookers, slow cookers, spaetzle makers, cookie presses, gravy strainers**, double boilers (bains marie)***, sukiyaki stoves, ice cream makers, and fondue sets.

*jam funnels: a very useful device if one uses mason jars for storing leftovers or dry goods
**gravy strainer: have owned for less than 1 year (i.e., didn't have it last Thanksgiving)
***double boiler: I have half of one, which is somewhat like not having one.

I had no idea there was such a thing as a banana stand, and now I want one.
The cake stand has become the fruit bowl, because it has a matching cake dome that frustrates fruit gnats: suddenly it's very popular.

They slow down the ripening by keeping them from sitting in their own ethylene exudates.

I think the idea of using a cake stand as a fruit bowl is really funny, but that's because we buy fruit three Costco boxes at a time, and dedicate a table and three or four large mixing bowls to it.

Yeah, they definitely miss out on multiple things. I mean, I actually bake angel food cake occasionally, so it's reasonable for me to have a tube pan. But why do I have TWO?

lol--in addition to more than one tube pan I also have two different castle shaped pans--one silicon and one aluminum. Use them both fairly often.

We have three of four waffle irons. But when we make waffles, we make *LOTS*.
