I'm with juliana and Jess on my Foreman grill, for pretty much the reasons Jess states -- I have little countertop, and I just use a skillet to cook anything I'd cook on the FG anyway.
Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
For kitchen gadgets, I've got a Foreman grill, a toaster, an immersion blender, a food processor, and a rice cooker. I could probably get rid of the rice cooker -- I bought it when I was in college and didn't have regular access to an actual kitchen -- but still use it sometimes, when I'm cooking things in all three pots I own and still want to have rice. I also don't use the immersion blender that often, but it's worth it for the times when I do. I hate cleaning it, though.
The grill, I use for grilling tofu and eggplant and peppers and other veggies and stuff. I like that it's relatively self-contained -- I can use it without having to deal with too many utensils, and it doesn't use up any more counter space than a broiler pan set on a hot plate would.

So the OC is not new, huh. Also, zap2it HATES me. Always. I give up on it.

Microwave gets used all the time, toaster occasionally, and steamer I don't use a hell of a lot but I love it when I do. I've been thinking about a GF because I love the grilled cheese but I hate making them in a pan. Oh, and the espresso machine is an every day. I've gotten rid of any other kitchen appliances I might once have had.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm making cheese quesadillas on my skillet RIGHT NOW!
Okay, it's only a step up from microwavable food, but there you go.

It's nice to know that when I've got my attention elsewhere, the community is here to pick up the slack and mock Sean as necessary.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thank goodness the OC was a rerun! Due to my missing half of it. I've never been so happy to see Paris Hilton.
I love my stick blender, even though I don't use it so often. SO much easier to deal with than the big blender for stuff like squash soup or whatever.
I am currently eating wasabi peas I bought at the drug store, and I think they might be my favorite brand I've tried thus far. They are saltier than the regular brand, and I am, as has been stated before, a saltwhore.
