I have a host asking a question about the pastry mat for a friend. The friend wants the mat to have places that will help her cut her pie crust evenly. When I look at the pic to me it looks like she should be able to do that, but the host said the lady asked about having bumps or raised areas...

I usually bring my large grooved cutting board but in the thought of cutting back I was thinking of bringing the cutting mats instead. Any thoughts? I know the cutting board is worth more but the mats are smaller and lighter.

Tonight I had an embarassing moment. I cut up granny smith apples into small pieces, and like I always do, with the peel on, I was going to chop the two apples. I couldn't for the like of it, get the apples to chop up. They kept getting stuck in my chopper. I have had my chopper since I got...

I used one tonight for the first time to cut up some chicken. I like the backing that makes it non-skid on the counter. However, the actual cutting surface was REALLY slippery! My chicken kept sliding around, which could be dangerous when using a large knife. All I know is the chicken never slid...

Love the board just because of the measuring cups, but mine has discoloured and I'm not sure why? The top has turned a tinted orange and yet the sides are still white. I haven't used it for anything that would cause this; I'm thinking the dishwasher but why?

Hi All, Dear Husband placed the cups on the bottom rack of the dishwasher and the 1 cup melted a bit to the point of not being able to use it.:( I checked out the replacement parts form and if my eyes are right, we can't replace a part for it. Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks!

ODORS!!! Does any one have an idea on how to remove odors from the cutting boards? My mom called and asked as she can not get rid of the onion odor from them. I have issues with the bamboo. So any ideas would be great. Oh and bleach did not work.

I have been very intentional this last year in cutting down expenses, but they are still too high and I am embarassed to post them here. I did notice that I spent over $700 on postage. This does not include the cost of mailing the hostess packet. I have been mailing out the invitations...

I'm not sure if I've done something to my cutting boards, but they seem very hard for me to get them clean and white. I do put them in the dishwasher. Any suggestions?

two quick questions.... I am about to purchase the knife set that comes with the bamboo block. Will the knives still come with the protective covers so if I want to bring one or two to a show with me I can? Or, do the knives come in the block with no covers? Also, what is the diff. b/w...

My SIL just called me and my BIL made fish on the bar pan last night - SHE HATES FISH! Anyway, he cleaned it properly (well trained man he is! :)) but it still smells like fish! She is freaking!! Its about 4 years old and very well seasoned, so I told her to use baking soda and water and add a...

I have a customer who was telling me about this thing his son had, that was Pampered Chef, and it had some sort of cutting wheel on it... and it cut through plastic? Now mind you, he was telling me about this as I was walking into church in a group of people... so I'm foggy on the details...
