[Fluff time] What is your pick for the top three non-food items to have in the kitchen?

A sink with running water.
A clean, flat surface.
A refrigerator.

Besides the above, all givens, I couldn’t do without a stove and/or toaster oven, my Foreman grill, and my programmable crock pot.

Second choices: a good set of knives, oven mitts, frying pan and can opener.

Toaster oven.

Water supply (sink)

Refrigerator

(knives are pretty important too.)

Chef
Wife free zone
Fire exit

My wife
A sturdy counter
And free time

My girlfriend
An oven
And that’s everything apart from the kitchen sink.

Do Twinkies count as a non-food item? What about celery? Jalapeno Cheetos?

A Bunn Coffee maker, a set of Chicago Cutlery and a Bosch dishwasher

The sink and major appliances are intrinsic to the kitchen and already in place, so I’m going to list my own additions:

Toaster
Tea kettle
A small selection of excellent knives

A trash can, a can opener and a cup.

garbage can (for wet stuff. A trash can is for dry stuff.)
cupboards
cutting board
(Aside from the other essentials mentioned above.)

A 12 inch cast iron skillet.

A coffee bean grinder.

A two quart sauce pan with lid.

One perfect knife.
Wooden cutting board.
Heavy skillet with venting lid.

I thought that too, just as a roof is to a house and the plugs are to the living room, but this is Fluther……and….well….

electric kettle

Swingaway can opener

heavy aluminum garlic press
