A Few Of My Favorite Kitchen Things

I absolutely love my zester! This is the “gratest” grater ever for limes, lemons, oranges, fresh ginger etc….I cannot cook without this little tool! Anybody else feel the same way?

My red kitchen aid is also another must have! My husband bought me this for Christmas a few years ago..he found a refurbished one and it works perfectly from whipping up all kinds of cakes, cookies and brownies as well as whipping cream or mashed potatoes in a matter of minutes. I love that it is freestanding so I can be doing other things whilst it is mixing!

Cuisinart electric hand blender is another must have…it is perfect for purée-ing soup right in the pan. I used to have to puree my soup in small batches in a blender and because it would be hot hotmliquid it would expand and ultimately come flying out all over the place!

These little nuggets are mini tongs! You can’t believe how often I use these! I am so glad I found some in my local grocery store. They are perfect for grabbing pieces of bread, candies or cookies out of a jar, veggies off a veggie tray..you name it these little, cute and colorful tongs are just plain fun to use!

What are your favorite or must haves in your kitchen?

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
