Titillating SWL...

You must all have enormous kitchens. My work surface is already cluttered with a bread maker, a deep fat fryer (both Jack's purchases, though we seldom use either ), a microwave oven, a toaster and of coures the kettle.

I draw the line at finding space for a coffee machine when we have a perfectly good £3.50 cafeterie thingie stowed in a cupboard.

I polish my cafetiere every Monday whilst drinking a copy of Nescafe Gold Blend.

I have a titchy kitchen too, it's a great disappointment to me, it would be fine if the cooker was at one end and the sink at the other, but the sink is at one end and the cooker (hob) is slap bang in the middle - slicing neatly though any decent workspace available. I haven't done any baking or cake making in years. I have got a large chopping board to put over the cooker hob, but it's one of these stupid ones that isn't flush to the work surface. In fact, I hate my kitchen.

You just need to get gadgets that will save space.

Such as this attractive pizza scissors.

Do you make all your own bread?

My bread machine, alongwith my never used pasta machine, is stored in some deep dark dusty recess under a sleeping bag and a broken beach basket. I expect. I haven't see either for years.

I'd love to make bread more often (than about twice in my life) but the machine is so enormous that it has to be an event.

I recently discovered that the easiest and quickest way to cut up a pizza is using kitchen scissors! You don't need this gadget, just hold a fish slice in the other hand.

Goddamit, why couldn't I have got there first with my discovery?

[trubble]

The best pizza cutter I had was from a kids' play pizza making kit. Just a blade that you kind of rocked back and forth a couple of times and it sliced through like a hot knife through butter.

I can't decide whether this pizza fork is useful or highly dangerous:

...whereas, I think we can all the see the many, many advantages of a gizmo that makes your boiled eggs square.

I've found something that I really do want. Oh no. This is probably how swl's illness started.

Wall mounted orange squeezer.



No comment.

I just use my teeth.

Take them out, deal with the pizza, put them back in, share it out. I find it's best if the recipients aren't looking. Photos coming soon on PhotoFit.

There's no way that egg is anywhere close to being fresh. Ask Delia.

It's pointless in any case -- it just wouldn't sit properly on my slicer.

Surely you'd have to soak it in vinegar first? That's how I hear that you soften the shell anyway?

[Deleted]

why would anyone want a sqwuare egg? unless you're going to give it to someone as a present, i suppose it would be easier to wrap up if its sqwuare.

[swl]

I want that udder jug

Eggs? Vinegar? All will be revealed
