My Husband! He's the one who loves to cook around here, not me!
For me I'd have to say I can't live without my microwave (to reheat the food Richard cooks, LOL!).
As for the food item I need the most it would probably be milk. We drink about 3-4 gallons a week - just the two of us. I have to have something to pour over my cold cereal for breakfast since I don't cook.:p
Tool: my set of Henckels knives!! Can't figure out why I waited so long (I LOVE to cook!) They were a present to myself about 4 years back and I STILL marvel at them!

Here's another good question...
If I open my food storage area, I have tons of ---------- in there.
What food product will you find in there?
---------------
IF I don't post these all at once I forget.
What kitchen appliance do you use that kinda scares you?
cases of H2o in pantry
I'm fearless in the kitchen.
yup that's my Tonya!!
Yeah, but not everyone's lucky enough to have a Dad like ours that teaches them how to sharpen good knives! :)
In my case, let's see ...
Tool: Good knives
Machine: Food Processor
Hmm, I've got the same genes, but cannot decide whether to put onions or cinnamon ... this time of year, though, I'll say
Good Tomatoes!
And Richard, there's no kitchen appliance that scares me, but cleaning products can scare me, especially if they say "new and improved" because some of them make me extremely ill.
I'd have to say that I could not live without most of my Pampared Chef tools!
OMG!
I love them all!
I think I love my chopper the best.
Kitchen item that scares me: Pressure cooker or deep fat fryer which is why I don't have any!
Predominant in my "pantry" - rice, pasta, beans, herbs & spices
Machine - The coffee maker - without it, nothing else matters:rolleyes:
Food - garlic - I can't wait for this year's garlic festival in August so that I can stock up on the good stuff!!! (But this year I'll pass on the garlic ice cream, that's definetly something that only needs to be experienced once in life).
Tools - used to be my nifty cheese grater/container that I bought at IKEA until I was told that I needed to get my cholesterol levels down.:(
I love my PC knifes.
--------
I have a giant tupperware bucket filled with rice in my cupboard.:)
MY big fear is of a box grater-knuckle buster- I always get down to the smallest part of the food I am grating and get paranoid!:eek:
In my kitchen, I cannot live without my...

telephone and take-away menus! :rolleyes:
cat walking between my feet, meowing, waiting for a dish of milk or other people-food treat
DUDE!!!!!
I friggin hate the plastic packages that I have to open in the kitchen......
I usually grab a knife and proceed to punch holes into the plastic that make pouring out the contents harder!
One day I was thinking and grabbed one of these-----
http://www.westsky.com/letter-openers.htm
Companies GIVE them away and they open letters with no problem at all! I grabbed the one off of my telephone table and started to use it on the packets with not a care or problem in the world!
It's totally magic and I am going to glue a magnet onto mine and place it on the fridge.......If you have one try it!
It's a god send!
