Cooking Utencils

So after discovering that my second slotted spoon melted somewhat (only discovered AFTER i ate dinner, there goes my stress -_-, but it didn't look like it had gotten into it rather just accumulated at the end of it), i am now out two utencils. I never leave them in the pot when i cook (they have thier own plate). I guess thats what happens when i buy cheap ones. As of right now i'm down too: two metal ones (one ladle, one flipper) and a plastic flipper. Originally, i went plastic because of the as seen on tv green pan i got (biggest piece of junk ever, but thats another story).

Ideas on what i should get?

My favorite brand of cooking utensil is Oxo brand, you can find them in stores and online at the evil website. I have enjoyed the use of every single thing I ever bought from them. Very good stuff.

I love using silicon utensils by OXO brand as well: spatulas, spoons, turners.

They look like this:

yes, they may seem expensive, but you'll have them until you are old --like me.

Heat resistant and clean right up.

Do not stain, warp, or do any of the things that make the plastic things "oogey".

I also have a stainless steel set that I have owned since

the dinosaurs roamed the earth.

Those babies are indestructible. (the utensils, not the dinos)

The one thing I never skimp on is kitchen ware and appliances. Invest in the better product or you'll just keep replacing things over and over.

I got silicone ones too - another good thing is that they come in great colors too (in the uk at least).

I now have EVERYTHING in purple - utensils, toaster, spoon rests, colander...

It was expensive, but no one doubts which is my gluten-free stuff now.

I wonder if you could ask a few people for a cheeky early Christmas gift? Or maybe swap a utensil for some lovely homebaked gluten-free goodies.

I know if any of my family or friends were stuck I'd handle the price of a spatula for them.

Just trying to get a bit creative, I remember being broke...

My silicon spatulas and spoons are red and pink!!

and I bought one at a time...about $4 bucks each.

I dropped the hint to my family :)

I'll look into those, for now i'll stick with my metal ones its just frustrating lol

Great, so you get to feel better AND have a cheerful kitchen.

Fingers crossed your family pick up the hint quickly...

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
