Coffee Stuff
All things coffee. My favorites at home and away and things I only aspire to use!
This makes cold brew so easy and available all summer long! Also easy to clean up, which is a deal breaker for making cold brew at home!
Shelbru Cold Brew System, 16.9 fl oz
This is my favorite home espresso machine - it's versatile, durable, relatively affordable, and easy to use.
Stilosa Espresso Machine | De'Longhi
Since I don't have time in the mornings for a traditional espresso machine, this is the one I use. It wakes me up every morning, the coffee is good, and it is both durable and affordable. Bonus: it's easy to take with me on road trips!
Nespresso Inissia | DeLonghi
I LOVE this rack! It holds a ton, easily roll-able on the counter or table, and looks good!

I switched to Nespresso so I could use compostable pods. I like Woken coffee a lot. I drink lattes, so choose strong flavor. Woken offers lots of options - though I found the decaf VERY bitter

It's not just hype - I love my Instant Pot! Mine is small, but enough for dinner and leftovers. I love tossing in some frozen chicken, green chile, and spices, and having enchiladas in about 40 minutes.
Instant Pot® Duo™ Mini 3-quart Multi-Use Pressure ...
I use this ALL the time! Daquiris :), waffles, pie dough, cauliflower puree. The only down side is it's too good. It would turn salsa ingredients into soup! It's not for chopping, just blending!
Ninja Food Chopper Express Chop, 200-Watt, 16-oz
This is my air fryer. It was a gift a few years ago and I have USED it! It's still going strong. Easy to use, easy to clean, doesn't take up half my counter!
Insignia™ 5 Qt. Analog Air Fryer Stainless Steel NS-AF5MSS2 - Best Buy
I inherited my stand mixer - it's pale yellow. My aunt used it for about 30 years before I got it, and it's still going strong. I use it for larger bakes and anything that needs to be mixed for a long time. I love being able to turn it on and work on...
KitchenAid Classic 4.5 Quart Stand Mixer, Onyx Black
I bought this with a gift card to one of those expensive gourmet chains. I use it weekly for whipped cream - including pup cups! :)

I do best on a low carb plan, so here are some of my favorites. Some are good enough to eat even if you can eat refined carbs!
These are great for those of us who don't tolerate carbs, well. Plain is good for sandwiches. I also make them with cinnamon & sweetener which satisfies my over-active sweet tooth!

This is a new favorite. No flavor but a very close approximation to pasta, with the benefits of fiber
Simple Truth Organic™ Shirataki Spaghetti or Fettuccine Style Noodles, 7 oz
These are really good! I used my fav sugar alternative. I bet that made according to the recipe they'd be hard to resist.
