This avocado pitter/slicer is a great gadget. I used it tonight for the first time and it made slicing the avocado a breeze. This will definitely be used a lot in our house.
I have yet to try out this Ebelskiver pan. What -- you have never heard on Ebelskiver pancakes? They are light and fluffy pancakes that are usually filled with jam. I also got the recipe book to go along with it. There is a wide variety of recipes -- from sweet to savory. I am getting hungry just thinking about them.

And today is New Year's Day... Happy 2010. Last night we celebrated NYE in a very responsible / parental kind of way. We had a family game night with some friends and were home in bed by 1. And as far as resolutions.... I am just going to aim to get rid of the baby weight. I think it is going to be the death of me.

These are awesome gifts! I always ask for cooking and/or organizing related gifts and my family thinks they're lame because they're too practical. Glad to know I'm not the only one who enjoys them! Happy New Year!!
I seriously need that avocado gadget - I've never even heard of it before!!
So cool!!
i love avocados! now you got me thinking about dinner/lunch! :)
i need to get rid of some weight myself- i think we should do a blog just for that and have everyone check in so that we become accountable to something!
ps- i've moved
I love my ebelskiver pan! They make the yummiest treats. So good filled with raspberry preserves. I'll have to try that avacado slicer - we eat guacamole all the time.
Oh! I love all your cooking gadgets from Santa! I am glad you all had a Merry Christmas!
We have an Ebelskiver pan too! Solvang, a super cute Danish town about 3 hours north of LA, has the best Ebelskivers, that's where I first tried them. But I haven't actually used the pan yet. Let me know how it goes!
Happy New Year!
Happy you have a wonderful 2010!! :)
Great gifts! I have that ebelskiver pan and love it. One tip, heat the pan at a lower temp than advised on the included instructions or your ebelskivers will quickly burn. I also use a non-stick cooking spray on it instead of butter because the butter browns too fast.
I love making them with mini chocolate chips inside. They are melty and delicious. Wow, I'm hungry just thinking about them!
i got a meat tenderizer. i love cooking gadgets!
Where is the avocado thingy from? My husband eats them every night on his salad and doesn't think I slice them right!
I have the Ebelskiver pan and have never used it. It was a birthday gift in 2008 and I still haven't used it. I even bought an Ebelskiver cookbook to try to convince me to try it. It looks delicious. Not sure what I'm afraid of!
