What stuff in the kitchen do you HATE, find useless, or a hassle to use?
Re: s/o kitchen stuff
haha I was gong to write about these 3 things but I think you have it covered! Oh and add a salad spinner
Another vote for the food processor. I think I used it once and realized it was a lot easier to just chop sh!t up myself.
I do love my blender, though, for making smoothies and shakes.

Brent's been wanting a rice cooker and I don't see the point of it so now it is a definite NO
Ahhhh...the rice cooker for sure is the worst. WTF was I thinking?
That's so funny. We use our rice cooker all the time. I haven't figured out the magic formula of water to rice, but DH does it and the rice comes out perfect. It's nice to just throw it in there, push the button, and not have to worry about it. It's also really easy to clean after it cools off.

I'm not much of a domestic diva funny considering i'm a sahm! oh well. One of these days maybe my inner italian housewife will come out. D does a lot of the cooking around here. I stick to making gravy (yes i call it gravy) & sometimes ill make a baked chicken dish or 2.
Anyways so i'm not much help here but i'm surprised to hear most of you don't use your blenders. I guess since the only thing i'm good at is making gravy so i use it everytime i make dinner LOL

food processor.
salad spinner
wok
chocolate fountain.
the mandolin- never use it, plus a PIA to wash
i have to look up what this thing is! never heard of it.
yea i never use my salad spinner either.
my blender was my BFF when I was making baby food for A, other than that I haven't taken it out much since. The only use I have for my food processor is chopping chocolate & nuts when I'm baking cookies at christmas time.
The most useless item I find right now is my George Forman "lean mean fat reducing grillin' machine". That was the biggest waste of money ever. I just use my grill outside in the summer and a saute pan or griddle pan inside. I need to get rid of that thing b/c it's just taking up space now.
