rosefox who got it from rose_lemberg: Bold the ones you have and use at least once a year, italicize the ones you have and don’t use, strike through the ones you have had but got rid of.
Slow cooker - barbecue and stew and soup
Coffee grinder - when I have company, I make coffee, but have more or less given it up this year
Not on the list, but in my kitchen:
Hot-air popcorn popper
One surprising omission:
French press (not that I have one, but I used to; we even had one for the office beforecritus got an aeropress instead; see aforementioned decline in coffee making and consumption)
Otherwise? I don't own any* of those, and probably wouldn't recognize most of 'em.
I use, err... one small skillet to cook eggs, one small saucepan to heat canned soup, and a couple of mixing bowls to blend ground beef with chopped onions to make hamburgers, marinate chicken, or pop popcorn into.
* There might be a fillet knife in my butcher block, but I don't think so. Ditto the meat thermometer / junk drawer... I may have, at one point, owned a barbecue fork that had a built in thermometer, but don't know where it's gone off to; I think K took it when she moved out (along with most of the other fancy kitchen gadgets - french press, serious blender, breadmaker, etc), since she's far more kitchen-witchy than I have ever been.

If you haven't tried this trick, it's marvelous. (I use about 5-6 ounces of water, as a full cup overcooks broccoli slightly)
