Kitchen Gear
Use this stuff to chef it up in the kitchen real nice.
Pots, Pans, and Utensils
This Amazon Basics 15-piece set of pots and pans does what it aims to do: covers the basics. I especially like the 3-quart pan, which is a hard size to find for some reason.
Utopia Cast Iron Skillet
A good cast iron skillet is a must-have kitchen item. I've had this one for over eight years, and it's still doing its thing.
Oxo Coffee Grinder
Don't buy ground coffee. Buy whole beans and use this grinder to grind up the beans yourself. You'll notice the difference. A little pricey, but worth it. This'll grind up your coffee beans like a champ.
Food Storage Containers With Lids
These Rubbermaid glass food storage containers are a cut above the regular ho-hum storage containers you've probably been workin' with.
Messermeister Tomato Knife
I call this a tomato knife, but it can do more than cut tomatoes. You should see what it does to lemons and limes.
Rachael Ray 3-Quart Sauté Pan
A crazy versatile piece of kitchen equipment. I use mine all the time, especially to cook ground turkey.
Glad Mixing Bowls
This set of three mixing bowls fits easily into small spaces and does what it's supposed to do. Good price, too.
