These Are a Few of My Favorite (Kitchen) Things

I love love love my Cuisinart Mini Prep food processor. Every kitchen should have one. I use it for so many different thing and probably use it more than any other kitchen gadget I have.

I also like my Aerolatte milk frother. It's a small, battery-operated hand held device (like a mini-mini imersion blender) used for frothing milk for capuccinos and lattes. I use mine for mixing salad dressing. It emulsifies the ingredients beautifully!

Come cook with me!
