Utensil excess?

Posted by mrsmoosie, January 30, 2008

I went to a Pampered Chef party last week and ordered a set of bamboo spoons and spatulas (nice and smooth!!), my sister-in-laws reaction was "More spoons?" Does anyone else have what seems to most people to be an excess of utensils and such? I don't mean the gimmicky gadgets which I have spent plenty of money on and then hardly ever used, but stuff you have a lot of because you actually use it. I have 2 sets of measuring cups (plus the odd size set) and 4 sets of measuring spoons, three or four whisks, and who can have too many spoons or tongs? Maybe I am just lazy and don't like to have to wash as I go, but I really do feel like I "need" them all. My friends look at the canisters on my counter and just shake their heads. Oh yeah, I bought a whisk at the Pampered Chef party as well.
