Scoops

I believe there is always a kitchen gadget that every household cherishes. Each house is different, but if you took a poll on the street, 90% of people would have a definitive answer.

For the baker, a Kitchen Aid stand mixer. For the cook, a Le Creuset Dutch Oven. For the bachelor, maybe it's the microwave.

While I love baking, cooking, and all things food, I could come up with a whole lot of answers to the kitchen gadget question.  But right now I have one that is really coming in handy:

the Scoop!

 

I love them so much, I have four different sizes!

They all have oz. measurements but I have names for them biggest to smallest.

• Ice Muff
• B-Food
• CCmuff
• Lope

 Yes I'm weird...

Ice Muff?

A cross between the Ice Cream scoop and exact muffin batter measurer.

B-Food?

 

My Baby Food scoop!

Scoops into the ice trays perfectly with no mess.

The mess comes later.

CCmuff?

 

I double my chocolate chip cookie recipe, bake half and scoop the other half of the dough on sheet pan  and freeze.  Helpful for last minute playdates.(or a late night craving of cookie dough ..ahem...not me of course)

~~~~~

Lope?

Cantelope scoops for fruit salad.

Imagine a beautiful fruit salad with strawberries, blueberries, fresh pineapple, and cantelope 'cause I don't have a picture. 

And maybe you don't want to imagine perfect scoops of cantelope, my friend B would get sick if she did.

Imagine that!

Happy Monday!!
