And I already have a question ;). I am in the process of buying a new set of pots and pans. I am so tempted to save a little longer and go ahead and get the Calphalon One but at the same time I am wondering what people are really satisfied with. My question, I guess, is: What is your favorite line of pots and pans to use? Do you think it would be wise to hold out a little longer for the Calphalon One?

Hi Peri!! Good to see you here, think we have met before elsewhere ;-)) You will get great advice here on all kinds of things LOL Keep saving those pennies for the cookware you want, but let us know how the Kirkland stuff turns out too, I have seen them in our Costcos over here and they look good!

Hey Peri, just wanted to welcome you too! I'm Nicki, k-roni's DD!

I have the kitchen essentials by calphalon cookware (from Target--got it all as wedding gifts) and I am mostly happy with it. I think it's not as good as real calphalon...the "everyday pan" I have (that I cook in, oh, almost every day!) is worn out--the non stick doesn't work anymore and everything sticks to it now. I have trouble enforcing the "no metal utensils" rule with DH, so that is probably the culprit. I have been known to break the rule from time to time, but I do mostly stick with my wooden and nylon spoons.

I have a 6 month old and a 2 1/2 year old, and I love making baby food! Just wanted to share that little bit with you! For Christmas I bought myself a new blender (my old one was just not working well) and it has a food processor attachment and I am very happy about all the baby food possibilities. My baby is not eating much food yet, but I am about to start cooking a few staples and freezing them in little ice cube sizes for convenience.

Nice to "meet" you!
