[quote=Anonymous]A good knife — my favorite is my very small chef’s knife.  My hand blender.  My Instant Pot pressure cooker. My rice cooker.
My waffle iron.

I have an old, small, Cuisinart rice cooker.  It makes perfect rice and other grains, and I use it to heat up leftovers. I have also used it to make pancakes, Japanese style cheesecakes , and other desserts in small servings. The life-changing feature of the rice cooker and the IP is that the shut off /switch to warming automatically, so they can be left alone to do their thing.  
The IP makes meats, soups, boiled eggs, lentils and beans, potatoes and sweet potatoes, greens, almost effortless.  Boiled eggs usually peel perfectly.  Lentils and beans have a nicer texture compared to cooking them on the stove.  I’ve also used it to steam frozen foods — like dumplings and tortellini.  My Instant Pot got my through my COVID-times cooking crisis.  For an extra, I’d add my waffle iron.  I’ve made waffles out of lots of things — including brownie mix. (Yum!) And bananas mixed with peanut butter.  And eggs mixed with cheese.
