My Favorite Kitchen Tools

February 16, 2020 By SYSTEM 8 Comments

If we were to count up utensils, knives, gadgets and gizmos in our crowded kitchens, I’ll bet the number would be astonishing.

I recently had to travel for work. This doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, the reality of the fact that I am in charge of our family’s meals becomes very apparent.

Has anyone else ever been in this situation: For once, you are feeling so on top of things! You know what you are making for dinner, you actually have all the ingredients, and you start the prep in time to get dinner on the table before everyone melts down. As you are cruising along in chopping an onion, you suddenly feel a tug at your leg, or a voice calling for help on homework you…
