So many favourites! I'm in love with my kitchen stuff.

New knives! (just had 2 Wusthofs arrive yesterday, waiting for 3 Globals. so sick of junk knives!)
Cast iron everything (even wok)
Immersion blender (BP coffee), including small bowl grinder for nuts.
Vitamix (mostly smoothies for my child)
Lemon/lime press
Julienne peeler (like my mandolin but sometimes get very injured so I hesitate to use it)
Zesting tool
Pestle and mortar
Crock pot (mostly only for bone broth)
Wood bowls, cutting board, utensils etc
And of course my coffee bean burr grinder.


I want to love my pressure cooker but haven't learned to use it.
I hate the food processor. Too annoying to get out, assemble, clean, put away. Might try it with my next mayo since I'm having so many fails lately. My Kitchen Aid mixer is a bit annoying to get out too but it has some useful attachments.

Vitamix - smoothies, ice creams, sauces, etc. We make barbecue sauce a lot and this last batch was phenomenal, because the Vitamix liquefied all the ingredients, releasing all the great flavors of everything.

Immersion blender - mayo! (That is literally the only reason I have it for edibles right now, I bought it for soapmaking)

Slow-cooker - Stocks, fat rendering, cooking, rebatching botched soap batches...

Kitchen-Aide Stand Mixer - anything that needs mixed without being liquefied

Kitchen-Aide mandolin - I specify it, because it's the best mandolin I've found. It has adjustable depth and several different blades. Great for chips or fries of any sort.

Stoneware baking items - We've had a pizza stone, muffin pan, and bread pans. We recently lost the muffin pan and pizza stone, and we're feeling the loss of the pizza stone (it's good for more than just pizzas!). Stoneware makes hands-down the best baked anything. I personally prefer glazed for everything except the pizza stone, just because cleaning is a lot easier, especially for things like the muffin pan (to be fair, the bread/cake dishes would probably be nearly as easy as the pizza stone to maintain, but the muffin pan? Never again unglazed, it's a PITA to keep even "stoneware standards" clean), but glazed or unglazed, they're awesome.

Once we can actually get it, my fridge - We're looking at something like this beast, because we're sick of our tiny side-by-side fridge (seriously, whoever thought those things were a good idea needs shot), and because we keep more food in our fridge than our cupboards now, and right now, we lose a lot of stuff, because we can't see half of what we can fit into it, so we end up forgetting about it. http://www.lowes.com/pd_551649-49317-LFX32945ST_1z11pm3+2zc5j__?productId=50183341&Ns=p_product_qty_sales_dollar|1&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNs%3Dp_product_qty_sales_dollar%7C1%26page%3D1&facetInfo=31-35.9 (Yes, yes, I know, we have expensive toys. We've realized that we have expensive taste. We pull it off by saving in other areas and finding ways to allow for such expenses. We save a lot, because I make a lot of stuff myself, work from home, etc. There are some things we feel are worth it to not skimp on quality, even if it means taking longer to get it.)

Last weekend I got a new set of Wusthof knives and a food processor for my birthday. Both gifts have been wonderful but the knives have been a revelation. I always thought the knives I was using before were adequate but these new ones make everything a million times easier.

We are at the tail end of finishing our home, so I finally have my dream kitchen being built (24 years after culinary school) with all my favorite toys.

6 burner Wolf stove and oven
Sub-Zero refrigerator
Deep freezer
Lodge enameled cast iron dutch oven
Ninja Mega with lots of attachments, especially the single serve cups
Espresso machine
Slow cooker
Knives - a 24 year old set of Henckles
Wusthof carver
Boning knife
Meat grinder attachment to Kitchen Aid
Dehydrator
Wine cooler
Bamboo steamer
Meat mallet

I have space for a convection oven, but that's down the road a bit.

mandolin slicer was but I have cut 3 finger tips, so it had to go ….really want the veggie spiraller though!!

^^ I use that same method to make mayo. Fool proof, so far.

I love my: cast iron skillits, varying sizes, knives, digital food scale... my pride and joy is my Thermador dual-fuel range.

I make mayo all the time in my blender and have never had an issue. I have never tried the immersion blender, maybe I will. I have one, but it sits in the cupboard unused for the most part.

I love

My kitchen aid mixer-especially the attachment that shreds
My small pan
My slow cooker
My pairing knives

All you folks that have a love/hate relationship with the mandolin need these gloves! I have them and love them, I only use one at a time just on the hand holding the food. I have Alton Brown to thank for me buying them.

Oh, there are so many right now! Paleo foods are so much fun to prepare!

I love my:

Vitamix
knives
skillets
mandolin
food processor
chopping boards

the list goes on! Would love to make other Paleo friends if anyone would like to add me!! My diary is open, and I am 100% Paleo. Right now, I am following the auto-immune protocol of it and will slowly work things back in about three months or so one at a time to see what causes me problems.

Would love to journey along together!!! ~Skye:flowerforyou:

We bought one similar a year or so ago long before I was paleo. Son has been for about 2 years. He wasn't using the spiraler so my hubby got rid of it. Figures.

Anyway, I was hoping to get a much smaller item than the one you listed.
