Guest guest Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 newest cooking gadget: hotpot scavenged from a recycling pile at my oldest daughter's dorm at the end of the school year. It's small but we were able to cook a dish for the family of seven while we were camping out in a motel (long story, we're moving and the house closing was delayed), and I fixed fresh shelled peas one night, sugar snap peas another, mushroom flavor ramen noodles with carrots and celery and onions and shiitake mushrooms to go along with the peas, mashed potatoes with mixed veggies the second night.... two hot dishes and fresh fruit for dessert is a whole lot cheaper than going out to a restaurant for every dinner! Now, favorite cooking item is my set of Cutco knives and two carving forks--don't know how I could cook without them. Not new, since I got them ten or more years ago, but I still enjoy fixing vegetable soup just as an excuse to work out with the knives.
