Definitely not the adjustable measuring spoons. I have those and they don't work at all. I do use them for gardening so they weren't a complete waste!
I love my pizza stone. |

| Stuff is garbage. I bought a bottle w/spitzer that was supposed to be for salad dressing...never worked even once. Bought some other stuff that I never used. |

I have quite a few items I've collected over the years. Things I use frequently are:
Mandolin - I use it to grate cheese & slice onions/cucumbers on a regular basis. I don't have a food processor to do that so I use the mandolin. Press & Seal - perfect for making "Uncrustables" sandwiches at home with multigrain bread Little Spatula - for everything Dripless Oil Bottle - just got this recently, love it. Not a single drop drizzle down the side of the bottle or on to my counter. Love it. Micro Cooker - Used a couple times a week. Perfect for steaming veggies or heating up soup. 10" ceramic pan - recent acquisition as an alternative to non-stick. It works pretty well. I've only made scrambled eggs in it, but it's pretty non-stick. I don't care for the white handle though, I can see it getting grimy with use over time. Bamboo spatula set - LOVE this, use it all the time in all my cookware Bamboo toaster tongs - mine are old and held together by a screw. I use them daily. Bread knife - love it. Mix & Chop - I make a lot of tacos/chili/spaghetti and this makes crumbling up the meat in the pan so much easier. I often start with frozen ground meat so it cooks off in chunks. I've used the spatula and never got the pieces as small as I would like. This is perfect. Flexible cutting mats - if you need some, get these. I don't have the PC ones, but I love the ones that I do have. Egg slicer - great for strawberries in the summer. My kids eat a ton of strawberries. I had quite a bit of their stoneware and never really used it. I just gave away a round roaster, a 9 x 13 pan & a sheet pan a few months ago. |

11:05 here - i love their scoops too. I make lots of cookies/muffins so these are great for uniform sizes.

| I like the scoops and love their dill mix, it's something I can eat on a low cholesterol diet. Like the mixing bowls with the lids, but I wouldn't pay the $$ for their stuff, overpriced IMO. All my PC stuff was a gift.. |

The apple slicer is the best I've found. Ten slices, fits most apples, cleans easily.
Pizza stone makes frozen pizza taste better. But I have heard you use a ceramic tile from Home Depot for the same results. We have the pizza cutter, but not sure it is any better than any other one. It has a nice cover to prevent slicing your fingers in the drawer. |

I have those! I actually use them a lot...not just for toast. |

Williams Sonoma has something similar. |

| Do any of you have the garlic peeler? I saw it and was wondering if it was worth the price. |

| All these things sound like things I have in my kitchen (except for the heart shaped bread thing) but that were purchased from places like Williams Sonoma or Sur la Table. What is different about Pampered Chef items? What is Pampered Chef? |

LOL! Me too! Saw it all the time in Maryland, thought it was a fluke. Moved to St. Louis, and it's at the thrifts here too! |
