. . .my favorite kitchen accessory. One day a few years ago my mother brought home this flat whisk. Up until that point I thought all whisks were of the balloon variety. After sitting in a drawer for a few years I finally picked it up to use while making bread. I was amazed. This is one sturdy little guy. I would never think to bake without it now. It can handle doughs like a pro and batters delicately. It is super easy to clean as well. I unfortunately do not know what brand this whisk is, the lettering wore off years ago, but it has a bit of heft and a thick handle. When you pick it up you can tell it can take a beating.
Gemma, I have to say you are a bit of a cooking dork, but it is really cute!

Well, you know me, I have to be geeking out about something all the time. This one might take the cake for dorkiness though. (Pun not entirely intended).

Gemma, I just got one of these for my birthday, and YOU ARE RIGHT. It's the best thing I own. I used it to make lemon curd last night, and I think I'm in love.

Excellent! I am glad someone understands. It is such a perfect instrument.
