Potato peeler woes!

So recently my pampered chef potato peeler bit the dust. I had replaced my original 20 year old peeler (that was a gift from my grandmother when I first moved out on my own... no name brand just a simple peeler) with the pampered chef one about 8 years ago. It was a sad sad day in my kitchen.  

We wound up buying this piece of crap replacement at the store just because we needed one in a hurry. That was a mistake and a total waste of money! I do not recommend it at all. Stay away from it. It was the faberware peeler that is like 2 bucks at walmart.  It is a piece of junk!  It broke the first time we tried to use it. The blade was just flimsy and could be bent with ease. 

So now we have gotten another replacement and hopefully it turns out to be a much better peeler than the last one. So far so good. 

We went with the T-fal Ingenio Curved Peeler, Black this time. It seems much sturdier than the last one we got. But only time will tell if it will really last for the long haul! It was a little more than the last one we got. About the same as my pampered chef one however.  As of right now... I would recommend it!

No big secret...

So it is no secret that I love the Pioneer Woman cookbooks! My first cookbook by Ree Drummond was The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl that I just happened apon during my trip to the store.



Tons of delicious recipes! Some of my favorites from this book. The pot roast is fabulous and goes great with the mashed potatoes.  The pizza dough is also a nice go to recipe from this book. I still have tons that I still have to try!

I quickly fell in love with the style of the cookbook and of course the food too!  So much so that I requested my 2nd one The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Food from My Frontier as a Christmas gift. I am glad to report that my hubby bought it for me too!



I will most likely add to my collection because my family enjoys the food that comes from following these recipes. There are two others on my wish list of cookbooks.  First we have    The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Dinnertime - Comfort Classics, Freezer Food, 16-minute Meals, and Other Delicious Ways to Solve Supper



The other ones is The Pioneer Woman Cooks: A Year of Holidays: 140 Step-by-Step Recipes for Simple, Scrumptious Celebrations.



After that then my collection will be complete! That is until she creates another cookbook.
