What Cooking Stuff Do You Have?

Do you guys find that you ask people for cooking things around christmas time? I for one don't have alot from Pampered Chef. I really don't like the products. However, as far as everything else goes, lol, I have TONS!! I am loaded with pans and pots, and I have a gadget for everything. I STILL don't have enough.

Over the weekend we went to Sears to get our taxes done. I HAD to stop by the cooking ware section, and yes, I bought another pan. My wife can't seem to understand it, so i kinda tell her it's like her and shoes. Then she understands lol.

I have been getting into cuting boards. I have a nice big thick wooden one, but I have about 4 plastic ones.

I have a bowl fetish - I LOVE bowls! Nesting bowls (especially if they are different colors), large bowls from Italy, just bowls...........I have no room left - I had to finally give a bowl away!

Oh, man, why'd you ask this question? You're a big meanie.

No, never mind. I love so many cooking toys, I can't settle on just ONE thing. I love gadgets and nifty appliances and I'm blessed because we have a couple of really great thrift stores that ALWAYS have a treat for me when I visit. Gotten some really awesome things over the years.

SS copper bottom, iron skillets, Chicago Cutlery make up most of what I have. Would love to get a good food processor soon.

Omigosh! How could I forget!!!!! I'm a dishware junkie. I don't know how many different sets of dishes we have. First, we have three different patterns/makers of antique/vintage china. Then, there's the assortment of contemporary tableware I have that I use to "set the scene," if you get what I mean.

After all that, there are all the clear glass pieces I have in at least 4 person settings. Dinner plates, luncheon plates, soup/dessert, etc. bowls, shrimp cocktail pieces, you name it.

Hmmm. There's a lot more, but if I post any more, Buck will find out and I'll be "cut off."

I have a thing for trays and platters. I love them. I use them, too. Anytime anyone eats someplace other than the dining table, I have the perfect tray for whatever they are having. And Fisher (who's 5) always uses a tray with high sides so that if he spills or dribbles or drops, it's easy to clean up. Trays are my passion.

But I have a very healthy attachment to shoes, too, PastaKing!
