I'm thinking of getting a dehydrator.  Besides jerky, what do you use it for?  What other kitchen tools do you find essential in the kitchen?
Thanks!  :)

Ah tomatoes,  that would be great, and so would the herbs.  I'm trying to validate my NEED for this new kitchen tool lol. Thanks Marty! :)

I just use mine for Jerky, essential kitchen tools.....food processor, good non stick skillet, 10" cast iron skillet, good chef knife, individual baking dishes, non stick snap form cheese cake pan, a set of small non stick tart molds, a good non stick cookie sheet, a set of stainless mixing bowls, good hand held or stand mixer.

I can cook about anything with the above :)

AAAAAND
 We're getting a scale this weekend too.  Shame on me for not having one already...but I'm SO good at denial...you know, stretchy clothes and warm ups work the best when running from problems. 
AAAAAND, I served Macafoney and cheese to my hubs, mom, and pop.  No one knew  the difference.  Fabulous! Tomorrow night is parmesan chicken and "pasta"  wooohooo...I can't wait
Thanks to you I love being in the kitchen again!!
More to come when the NEW scale moves!   :D :D

Jess,

I posted this a while back, I love this "noodle" maker.  I use it a lot and it seems to be holding up.  The important thing to remember is to clean it up right away.  You'll need a veggie brush to clean the blades so you don't get cut   :'(

 We're getting a scale this weekend too. ...
Hi Jess! :)

Just be sure to stay sway from those analog scales with springs.
They are notoriously inaccurate and get worse with age.

Here's a scale I'd recommend.
I call our's "Ole Reliable". ;)
