Garlic Roller

January 30, 2010

I have to admit I love kitchen gadgets.  I could spend hours looking around in kitchen stores admiring all the crazy things people have come up with.  My new favourite one is a Garlic Chopper by chef’n, it give the most perfect garlic without the smelly aroma left on your hands.  Let the pictures speak for them selves.

Now roll back and forth, back and forth etc etc……

Check out how it minces that garlic!  It’s beautiful!  I am in love with this little invention.


Christmas Gifts

December 28, 2009

All I really asked for for Christmas this year was an apron!  I am a VERY messy baker, the kitchen and myself end up a total disaster.  I will often strike into something on a whim and don’t think to change and will ruin a good shirt.  No longer a problem.  My fiance got me the best gift, not only is it an apron it is a personalized one with the name of my food blog embroidered on it! I love it!

I just love it! It won’t be white for long, soon it will be covered with everything imaginable!  Something I will treasure for a long time.

Thank you Mike!

Its been 3 weeks since my old stove died and the new one has arrived, and it is Fantastic!  I love it!  Looks like I will be able to make the October Daring Bakers Challenge after all.

Look how the middle rack comes apart.  Can cook 3 small things on the left and something tall on the right.  Genius!

I love that I can now hang my dishtowel on the oven door

I can’t wait to start baking in it!

Thank you Mom and Dad…a.k.a The landlords

Oven is dead…

DSCN3938I am very sad to say that my oven died, not to mention it almost killed us!  Was giving of a ppm CO reading of 180!  But thanks to the CO detector,  nice firemen and the propane men we live to tell about it.  So as a result I have been oven-less…makes for a difficult time baking.  Hopefully (fingers crossed) things will be up and running next weekend.  I more than likely will be late on my Daring Bakers Challenge, but I will be doing it!
