Happy Father’s Day: Kitchen Gadgets from my Dad

I write a lot about how my Mom taught me to cook, how I spent hours with her in the kitchen learning the fine art of the casserole, how she fostered my life long love of cooking. However, it seems as though my Dad is the one who has influenced my kitchen gadget fascination! In a Father’s Day tribute, I present 5 kitchen gadgets that I have received from my Dad, and use regularly, and recommend for your kitchen:

Garlic Peeler

Garlic Peeler
Garlic Peeler

Avocado Slicer

Whip Cream Maker (well not really from Dad, but we had one growing up)

Misto Olive Oil Sprayer

Knife Sharpening Stone

What is the best kitchen gadget your father gave you?

P.S. All these would make great Father’s Day gifts, if you are a last-minute sort of shopper!

    My dad used to always give me gadgets, too. :-) Just about each one in my kitchen is either from him or from my in-laws.

    What’s the latest news on those chicks?

    must work on a post about the chicks! They are in their outside coop and we (my husband, really) has spent this past weekend building a run. The chicken personalities are hysterical!
