Favorite Kitchen items Part I

I Love working in the kitchen. Over the years I have collected many kitchen items. Some have been keepers, others have been donated to Good Will. I am always on the lookout for new and fun things. Please do share if you have one!
Let's get started :)

My favorite bread pan. It makes a perfectly square slice of bread. The lid slides off and on and it bakes bread wonderfully. I found this at King Arthur Flour, a favorite catalog of mine.
I would love to visit their store in Vermont and attend one of their classes.


These fun little things are tortilla bakers. They make great taco salad bowls. They are fun to use for a ladies night or luncheon. I found them at a kitchen store in the mall.


This is a tomato knife. It cuts tomatoes with ease & perfection. I found it at our local Amish Country Store.
Sorry they don't have a website :)


I just finished making a big batch of fresh salsa with this handy little thing. I found it at Target *love that store* This is actually my third one. The first one was a Christmas gift, it was from Williams Sonoma. They make a great chopper/dicer, but the plastic hinges holding the lid on broke. So, next, I purchased one at the kitchen store at our mall. It was a great chopper as well, but the hinges on it broke too!
I decided to buy this one at Target. It was $10 cheaper than the other two. It works just as nice. We'll see how long it lasts. It whips up a batch of salsa super fast. I love it for onions, tomatoes, green peppers, cucumbers, and just about anything you want to dice.

More to come next week.... I know, I know, you can't wait ;)

I was lucky to snag one of the dicer/chopper things for $5.00 at target. I have used it for potatoes, onions, and carrots already. I really like it, evenly formed, and not mushy. I could only do a few carrots at a time, it doesn't seem like it is very heavy duty and will last long but am enjoying it a lot. thanks for the kitchen tool ideas, love my scoops too, I have all three sizes also and each one has a diffrent use.
