This box of kitchen tools included three pastry trimming tools. Three! This woman made some damn pies. Good lookin' pies.
The mystery homemaker had a crinkle cutter and an herb cutter. Fancy.
Was there a little memetic desire creeping in here? Either that or some just plain, "Let's party!". I'm going with, "Let's party!". I'll bet the previous owner could fold a mean cloth napkin too. Maybe make a "Swirl" or a "Fan" fold. Maybe even a "Fleur-de-lis"! I can just see her in her handmade aprons both fancy
and utilitarian.
I'm not sure what this is. A chinios with a hand holder? It looks too loosely "woven" to be that, though.
Any ideas? Margaret? Bueller? Bueller?
Hell with it. I'm going to go crinkle cut some crudites, bake a pie and ask those ladies over I think willing to party! Now where's my apron...


Me and Bueller are clueless, but thanks so much for the shout-out to Funky Junk! Your blog is cool. I am in awe! PS I'm so glad you defined memetic desires. I thought it was something Dr. Oz made up to help in the bedroom! PPS I had to laugh at the cinnamon stick in the pic of your Carrot Ribbons. It looks like you dropped your joint! As the kids say ROFL!
ReplyDeleteI just woke up in the middle of the night saying spaetzle maker, that funky junk thing on Sarah's blog is a spaetzle maker! So I had to get up (at 245am) and take a look, but it's not, so we'll have to wait for another's midnight epiphany to solve the mystery!
ReplyDeleteGonna cook up some carrots! Yum. ;)
ReplyDeleteI vote for something used in canning. You can put the sleeve over your jar opening and then mash the cooked fruit or veg through to make sure no seeds get into the jar. Or maybe strain the lumps out of gravy - not that a good cook would ever have lumps in the gravy!
