We love all of the OXO product lines, but these are definitely one of the most popular sets out of their collection.   OXO just makes great products… period.  Wooden spoons are a necessity for any kitchen, and these are just well made spoons.  Their design makes it easier to reach along the walls and into the corners of your cookware, and their large spoon heads allow for scooping up larger portions.   For the price, this is a GREAT gift for anyone that likes to cook (even if they already have a set of wooden spoons).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Price:<\/strong>  $11.99<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vitamix line of blenders are extremely popular right now.  You can puree fruits and vegetables, blend smoothies, create salad dressing, sauce, baby food, ice cream and even grind grains. It is this versatility that has allowed VitaMix to be one of the front-runners in home blenders for so long. The special jar that this blender uses allows it to blend a small amount (as little as 4 oz) with as much precision and consistency as a full container (64 oz.) thanks to the Vita-Mix design. The 1782 Turbo only has two speeds, but if you are looking for more options there are other models.   It is a bit more expensive than other blenders that are on the market, but from everything we have heard, it is well worth the price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Price:<\/strong> $373.95<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This may be one of our favorite products that we never knew actually existed.  Not only do these non-stick baking sheets make baking a breeze, but they also eliminate the need for non-stick cooking sprays.   You simply put these on top of your regular baking sheets and cookies, cakes, and whatever else you bake just simply slide right off.    They are also great for rolling out dough on the counter.  They also make clean up super easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Hamilton<\/a>
Hamilton Beach Set ‘n Forget Slow Cooker<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There are a couple of things that set this slow cooker apart from others that are on the market.  The price point is great, but it also offers three ways to cook – program, manual, and probe.  Yes, it comes with a temperature probe that can be used for large pieces of meat to ensure that it doesn’t get under or over cooked.  This is a great feature that most slow cookers don’t offer.   It also has a clip lock lid that makes it great for travel so that you don’t have to worry about spilling your favorite meal while transporting it to the party or dinner.   For the price, this is definitely one of the better slow cookers on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Price:<\/strong> $39.99<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Wilton<\/a>
Wilton 3 Piece Silicon Spatulas<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Everybody thinks a spatula is a spatula, but that is not the case.  Of all the different spatula’s on the market, we have found the Wilton Silicon Spatulas to be the best by far.   They are easy to handle, are heat resistant up to 500 degrees, and they are firm enough for any cooking situation yet flexible enough to contour to any shape.  In terms of price, they are very reasonable and would be a great addition to any kitchen for someone that likes to bake.   We think EVERY kitchen should have a set of these!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Price:<\/strong> $6.54<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn’t your average crock pot!  What we really love about this one is the versatility of being a slow cooker, brown\/saute pot, or steamer. It simplifies combination cooking, letting you bypass the stovetop by browning ingredients right in the unit before switching to Slow Cook.  The 24-hour timer and automatic Keep Warm feature are great for families on the go that want to be able to set it and forget it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
