Economy in the home is about more than just saving money. It’s about saving time, energy, and space. For years I lived with a tiny apartment kitchen, so any kitchen gadget I bought had to somehow fit into the “Rubik’s Cube” or it wasn’t allowed to enter.
I prided myself on my simplistic, economic approach. I kept the microwave, Kitchen Aids, and Vita-Mixes out of my diminutive kitchen so I could use what space I had to the full. I didn’t care if it bashed, chopped, or sang me to sleep—if it didn’t fit, it had to split.
Now, however, I have a larger kitchen that I could fill with every possible gadget that promises to make my life easier. The problem is that I don’t have the time to use all of them. And I don’t want to spend money or lose space for something I won’t use very often. I want my kitchen and its gadgets to work for me. I need them to help me…help me.
So after a prolonged search, I found two gadgets that I absolutely love and can recommend. These kitchen tools have helped to make my life easier and are worth both the money and the space. They allow me to economize my time and to even make simple homemade dinners on “school nights.”
When I first bought it, I wondered if I would really use it, but now I find myself cooking with it almost every day. I am so glad I put it in a very convenient spot.

Freshware Chopper—While I have always dreamed of being a professional chef (okay, not really), Giada DeLaurentis I am not (my smile is not as big). That’s why I love the Freshware Chopper.
This little gadget makes all of my vegetables look like they were professionally chopped—in just seconds—literally! It’s like having a Sous chef in the kitchen with me. It saves me so much time (and tears when chopping onions).
