Of all the existing kitchen utensils in my kitchen, I’ve made a discovery. I have a favorite. Get lost with out it. Not to say my wisk isn’t near and dear. So are my other assorted tools.

My mixer, a wonderful Christmas present for darling daughter and her family, gets a ton of use.

But my most elusive piece of equipment is my potato peeler. Somebody must be stealing my potato peeler. Either that or I’m absentmindedly tossing the damn darn thing out with the peelings.
I don’t need a fancy one…I just need one to be there when I need it. Currently, I have two. One I bought and one my darling daughter bought and hand delivered.
So enough silliness, what did all this tell me?
It reminded me how important the little things are. The seemingly unimportant things that we expect to be there when we need them. The ones we don’t pay enough attention to. The ones we need but don’t, won’t or can’t hang onto. So I resolve to pay more attention to my potato peeler, my family and my friends.
