Kitchen implements

Meme via [personal profile] rosefox, and altered because I wanted to. Original list source.

Bold the ones you have and use at least once a year
Italicize the ones you have and don’t use
Strike through the ones you have had but got rid of
Underline the ones you don't have but want to get

pasta machines
breadmakers
juicers
blenders
deep fat fryers
egg boilers
melon ballers
sandwich makers
pastry brushes
cheese knives - well, I have small knives I use for cheese
electric woks
miniature salad spinners
griddle pans - maybe
jam funnels
meat thermometers
filleting knives - I think my Japanese knife fits this
egg poachers
cake stands
garlic crushers - isn't it called a garlic press?
martini glasses
tea strainers - if by this they mean for individual servings of tea, oh do I ever, and I got rid of more that I want to replace
bamboo steamers
pizza stones
coffee grinders
milk frothers
piping bags - technically the bag broke, but I kept the nozzles around until the February move
banana stands
fluted pastry wheels
tagine dishes
conical strainers
rice cookers - if I could find one without any non-stick, I'd seriously consider it.
steam cookers
pressure cookers - could really use one here due to the altitude, and I also want to try canning
slow cookers - left a medium-big one with T$ (no clue if he kept it, but probably not) and picked up a small one here
spaetzle makers
cookie presses
gravy strainers - I have a mesh thing which I use for both this and draining pasta/veggies
double boilers (bains marie)
sukiyaki stoves
food processors
ice cream makers
takoyaki makers
fondue sets
popcorn maker - got rid of in the move and thinking of replacing
toaster oven - ditto
hot pot/electric kettle - double ditto
teapot - triple ditto, though I've been told that microwaving water to heat it is the most carbon efficient way of producing hot water for tea (etc.), so I'm waffling on the hot pot and teapot.
singe-serve coffee machine (aka K-cup) - I mostly used it for the hot water for tea, but also the occasional decaf coffee (until three days of decafs straight gave me migraines upon both drinking and withdrawl). T$ kept this. Anyone know a better name for this category of device?
electric grill (Foreman grill)

either that was a hell of a move you just did, or you have a runaway unmatched italics tag somewhere in there. (possibly on the line that starts ‘italicize’).

Well, italics was have and don't use, you were thinking of a runaway strike. But thanks for pointing out my missmatched i's.

italics are ones you have and don't use, therefore you still have them, threrefore you moved them. that whole list would have been a lot of kitchen to move.

Ah, I thought you meant that getting rid of everything on the list was one hell of a way to do things. Gotcha now. :)

in hindsight i could've worded it better. sorry about that.
