Kitchen Gadget of the Month - September edition

As much as I love to cook and bake, I hate, hate, HATE cleaning up after myself.  What??!??  You too??

I used to use this scrubby pad exclusively.  I'm sure you're familiar with them...how they grab all of the baked on ooey, gooey, ucky stuff and never ever let go.  Sure they work, but then you end up with something that looks far worse than your dirty dish or pan.

I am also a firm believer in soaking my dishes that have dried on food....sometimes I soak for several days.  Still the food doesn't magically lift off...gotta scrap and rub and scrub.

What to do??  This month's kitchen gadget is a life saver and another gadget in the long line of gadgets introduced to me by my mother-in-law, Vera.  Vera's love of kitchen gadgets even surpassed my own.  She had everything imaginable.  Since she has passed, I have inherited several of these goodies and think of her fondly each time I use one.

But the one I use nearly every day is this Pot Scrubber by Lodge - you know, the cast iron people.  These pot scrubbers are made of Polycarbonate and the design safely scrapes without scratching - including non-stick surfaces. Each corner is a different design to easily clean any type and size of cookware plus a flat side for the bottoms of pans.  They are simply amazing - can't imagine cleaning without them now.  Grab some for yourself today at my amazon store - you get two for a very low price:
