Has anyone done a This Old (kitchen) Tool theme show? I have never heard of this and what like to know more. I had a customer to say see went to a PC party and the consultant said it was a Old tool party.
 
Is it like on This Old House where they pass around a tool and take guesses for what it is?
 
Sounds like when the consultant tells guests to bring their oldest/worst kitchen tool, and they vote on the worst one at the show. The "winner" gets a prize, usually some money off a replacement from the catalog for their old thing.

That sounds like a great idea.
 
I've heard of the ugliest scraper/spatula contest. Or the worst oven mitt, you know how they love to land on a hot stove by themselves and burn up!
