| High Temperature Spatulas
|
|
If you haven't bought a new spatula in awhile, go get yourself a new one. They make them now out of a high temperature material - you can now use them while cooking, where previously they were batter-only.

| Grip Clips for Chips
|
|
Instead of using clothes pins to close chip bags, use the grip clips that you can find in the tool sections of stores. They're never more then .50 each but last A LOT longer and don't breaking apart. I use these on all of our cereal, chips, veggies for the freezer. Works great.

| Sharpen Your Dull Knife
|
|
Don't have a sharpening stone? Use a ceramic mug with a rough base. Turn mug upside down and using your opposite hand, hold the mug in place with the mug handle. Carefully run the blade at a slight angle across the bottom of the mug. Always do this with blade moving away from your body.

| Grease Jar Tip - Keep the Mess in the Sink
|
|
Do you make a mess when draining grease from cooked hamburger? I set my grease jar in the sink while spooning the grease. If I spill a little, no worry. I'll rinse the sink out when I'm finished.
This also works well when filling a lunch thermos with soup or pouring a large batch of sports drink mix into individual bottles.

| Store Extra Measuring Cups with Ingredients
|
|
Because I bake things often, I have purchased several sets of extra measuring cups and spoons I have found on sale days, I put the usual measure into the container for items like flours, sugars, leavening agents, oatmeal, etc., and leave them there. Saves time and washing, and extra mess because I can keep the bowls over the container while measuring.

Aside from electric appliances, cookware is probably going to be your single greatest investment in your kitchen, over time. However, when starting you can go a long way with some sensible purchases and by keeping your focus on the essentials.
