Gavin and Karen

We received an outpour of responses, all the way from the typical (a set of good knives), to the cute (my spouse), to the brutally honest (my wine and bottle opener). While we completely agree with all of those recommendations, we wanted to curate a list of very special kitchen utensils and equipment that we can’t live without in our kitchen that is more uncommon and you are likely missing in yours! About 10 years ago, Karen’s mom invested in a GelPro Mat and it was a lifesaver on tired feet and a big part of her plantar fasciitis relief! We found the perfect Gel Pro Elite for our kitchen (if you’re curious, we went for the light grey Lattice design) and our feet couldn’t thank us more because it feels like you’re standing on a cloud; it is seriously a BIG game changer.
