Gracie, a potato masher? My potato masher works hard in my kitchen!

I was given a dumpling press as a gift, but the grand kids found it and it became an playdoh press.

Another great question!!! I have a manual can opener, potato masher, & an egg cup that was used in the hospital where I was born & two of my children were born. It has the hospital initials on it & has been quite a conversaton piece when people entered my kitchen before I moved away from Ohio.

I must admit, too many to mention. Need a good, old-fashioned clean out! But I do still use the potato masher..."Mr. Gracie" loves his spuds and thinks that using the mixer is a mortal sin, so to keep the peace, I mash the potatoes by hand.

I don't use a bottle cap opener much, but also have a real Coke one, not the reproduction. I don't drink coffee, so no percolator, (but have htr record of that song), I use a wisk for eggs, I use a manual potato masher, and sometimes a hand grinder. I like kitchen gadgets, and use them.

I just recently gave away to Goodwill my wok, chinese steamer and pressure cooker, as I never used them anymore.
I also use a hand can opener, I peel my potatoes with a paring knife rather than a potatoe peeler. My ex was a meat and potaotes man and I have peeled enough potatoes in my life, that I thought at times that I was on permanant KP duty. I find that the knife works faster for me. I never use my rolling pin anymore.

I have a tea strainer. It's ancient, a woven brass basket shape. Probably a priceless antique by now! I still use it once in a while when a tea bag breaks open.
Do the stores still sell loose-leaf tea? I'll have to look for some and try to make tea the old fashioned way again.

I own probably just about everything on here, and two of several things. I have two "Swing-A-Way" can openers that are still going strong after many years. I do believe they are superior to anything else I've ever tried.
I have all my cake baking equipment, canners, etc.
But the thing is, I've never quit using them. Let's face it, you just don't get that kind of quality in what is made today.

I have one of the old egg beaters and I use it fairly often! I suppose I could do it with the mixer, but that's how I grew up doing it and it's habit now. How about an egg separator? or a pastry blender?
