@@jackieblue787 In another video Tipper said she did have a dishwasher at one time, but it went to the bad and she didn't want another one. The empty space beside the sink looks like where it used to be. It's got her trash can underneath now.

I have several kitchen items from my grandma on my Mom's side. I can remember then from a small child in the late 40's & 50's. Thanksgiving day 2022 I was making real whipped cream for our pies that I was taking to my daughter's for dinner. My cheapy little mixer wouldn't thicken the cream & I was just beside myself. I took Grandma's egg beater & went to work. Very soon I had the cream whipped & it made beautiful peaks. :-) I'm like you Tipper. I just love having my grandma's things. I had her rolling pin & my Mom's & mine. I'm so thankful for them.

I had a great uncle Woodrow such a sweet man. Your videos always bring back memories

I have a few that we’re made in USA. So proud of them .❤❤❤

16:55 so many childhood memories from that shortening and ice cream spoon from about 60 years ago. I've got to find me one. Thank you!

Loved the run down of your utensils and memories. Made me smile and started me thinking of my own.

Loved this! I also like old things , I love the old things that have been handed down....i have gotten some great utensils, cheap from yard sales....I agree about things you use often ,for years ,becoming like old friends.....we have always used old hickory butcher knives , they are really good ....I use the same kind of rapala filet knives ....it is awesome that you can clean and filet fish tipper! I taught my daughter how to clean and filet fish on our fishing trips when she was a kid....thanks tipper ....God bless....🙏❤

I live east of Raleigh NC in Johnston county. The mountains are so beautiful. I tell you everything I see y'all cook looks amazing. I'm a trucker so I'm always traveling. It be amazing to meet you and your husband y'all seem like such down to earth good folk. Hope y'all have a great day and love watching and learning from your videos.

You’re lucky, you have so much cabinet & drawer space!

Such a wonderful collection of tools, thanks for sharing your stories and your history.

Oh!! So nice to see your kitchen wizardry⭐️I would really like to see a yogurt making video!! Been wanting to start doing that!

Just loved listening to all the stories about your utensils. I have my favorites too. I always am drawn to the utensil isle in stores and thrift shops. It's my favorite place to visit.

Me too with the can opener ❤❤❤

Very interesting to get to see utensils you love to use, especially ones with fond memories of loved ones. I think Rada should sponsor your KZread channel, too…they offer very good knives and tools…I have a chopper, not smooth edge like yours but with ridges that are very sharp to chop veggies….I’ve had it since 1969 and it’s still sharp and I still use it often, especially to chop onions or cabbage….enjoy these type of videos..thank you🤗

I love hand me down utincils, some of my mother's, grandmother's, and my aunt's. For the sintemental value like you! But I saw one of those corn cutters and didn't know that's what it was, do thank you! And I love Pampered Chef, I have a few of those. I love watching your videos and watching you cook! And the gardening is very interesting! It's so relaxing!❤️🙏

I would love to have you show us how to gut and fillet fish! That's a great skill to know!

love all of your utensils. I always notice the little whisk, I need one of them. the flat wooden spatulas are my favorite too.

I love this video. I have so many utensils that belonged to my granny and my mama. They mean so much to me, and I think they make the food taste better! 😊

Thank for sharing your utensils. I enjoyed your video.

I feel the same way about my kitchen thing's. It makes me feel close to my love one's.

Love this video.Thank you Tipper

Enjoyed this video so much. Love the stories that go with your utensils. Thanks for sharing! Take care.

Hahah well done Miss Tipper! My favorite are spatulas and tongs. 😊

Oh wow, I still have orange Tupperware measuring cups, in addition to white ones and the stainless steel ones - and I use all of them! I have so many favorite tools in the kitchen too! Oh my goodness - and I have that same Rada tomato knife, another kitchen tool that is so very good and useful!

My favorite pizza cutters in the kitchen are scissors too!

That little white can opener - the pointy part we call a church key ; )

I am blessed to have my mother's Griswold skillet and the cast aluminum roaster. It took me a long time to find the jar opener like the one she had; hers was green and mine is red but when I use it I can think of her.

Tools, yes. I have a few very old utensils too. But like you I do like those one piece silicone spatulas. They're tough! I also have flat wooden ones that I tend to use a lot. One of them has holes in it. Not sure what that's for, maybe stirring soup? That little triangular whisk you have as always caught my eye, and I will go look it up. Thanks again for a good video.

I love my "Kitchamajig" & my Fish Turner. The Turner also comes Left Handed

Love the carved rolling pin😍My father & his family were all carpenters, cravers and I have 3 or 4 craved rolling pins a couple of them are 90yrs maybe older❤

I love these kind of videos. I also love RADA products, our church used to have Rada fundraisers. My chopper from them is my favorite. And I hate electric can openers too. I just purchased a new tupperware can opener, it was pricey but I used to have one and loved it. It is definitely the best I've ever used. No sharp edges from cans and so easy to turn, I have carpel tunnel and weak hands, lol. Thank you Tipper for all the great videos!

I have an electric can opener, but I reach for the old fashioned one every time. I have my favorite utensils too, in fact I need to cull some out. I have a ruler and three sizes of sifters.

Every kitchen needs a couple of Rapala filet knives…pretty handy knives to have 😊😎😊😎😊😎

Great video tipper keep up the great work

My mama had a Rada tomato slicer and I loved it. I need to get one.

Oops, hit send too soonI particularly love that beautiful hand carved double spoon!❤️

I have an old biscuit cutter of my grandmothers. It has the word Rumsford imprinted into the metal handle so it must have been a baking powder promotion from long ago.

It’s amazing how certain tools remind us of someone. Or, how we get a favorite kitchen tool that we just can’t imagine being without.

My family had an old fashioned can opener that was attached to the side of the cabinet and folded back, and it had a long crank handle. I had one for a while, but now as my hands are getting achy, I'm going to get another. It's a lot easier on the hands than the twist sort.

Great stories! Thank you for sharing

my favorite is my small whisk and colander. i also like the black and decker electric chopper. i use it the most often

I have that Rada tomato knife and love it!

I love the old utensils too. My Mama just passed away and I have some of her kitchen stuff that I use quite often. Brings up such great memories.

Tipper, That is a Pampered Chef Ice Cream Scoop

Love Rada products! I have so many pieces of those. They are the best knives.

And I remember growing up mom had different things in the kitchen and then I'll stay with Dad he had the same different things and we always growed up using that can opener silver one and we never had electrical one and after I growed up always use them to and my wife wanted electric one I told her go out by 1 I was good with the old style and still today I still use the old style can opener and there's a lot of people out there just don't know how to do it and that one tool you had right before them red ones I've never seen one like that before and I forgot what you said it was

I love this! I never had a wedding shower or reception when I got married, and therefore inherited cookware and utensils from both grandmas and my mother. Some pieces are really old but have stood the test of time and I use them daily. I didn't always but now feel blessed to have these older kitchen items with such good memories attached.

OMG i have almost everything that you showed on your vid. I and my husband use a lot of these kitchen tools. He is a chef and I am not but I have 50 yrs experience, he has all of our older ones hanging on the kitchen walland we use them. WOW great vid.

Thank you so much! I love seeing all your tools and hearing the stories behind them. And if you're ever deciding on merchandise for the future, may I suggest selling aprons with your logo. 💜

I loved this so much! Have my great grandma’s biscuit bowl and sifter. Still use it-even tho the wooden handle came off urs ago. PLEASE do a video on how to filet fish. I have the knife and have never used it. Would love to see a demonstration! 🥰

Watch out Tipper’s wavin knives around today!😯😂 I’ve got generation’s of utensils too. I think of the ppl who used them years ago whenever I use them.

The first-ever time I saw you I fell in love with your mixing bowl. Some time later you did a video showing your favourite kitchen utensils and the bowl was one. You said it was a Texas ware range which of course doesn't exist in England. Anyway I got onto ebay and there were quite a few for sale. Considering they were old and evidently still wanted the prices reflected this. I got quite excited until I noticed how much shipping would cost! You could pay about £20 for the bowl but then anything between £30 to £50 for shipping! I will just admire yours. Thanks for the video and I am looking forward to the morning and the next installment.

Loved seeing this. I was just complaining to my husband that I’m not happy with new spatulas….I like my old one and can’t find another like it. It’s funny how we get attached to those things we use daily. I think I need to visit some yard sales to see if I can find another like my old one.

My aunt stirred gravy with one wooden spoon for so long it had a flat spot!

Enjoyed 😉

Having a great time tonight watching these videos. I could say so much. I still have my g-ma's spatula. It's got a round shape and a chip in the plastic handle, perfect for pancakes. I have her box grater (don't use it anymore, on display). And aluminum colander I use almost every day.

I have a favorite ladle: a "monoblock" pressed out of a single piece of stainless steel sheet metal: the handle and the bowl of the ladle are not welded together, as is usually the case, so there are no difficult-to-clean spots at the contact surfaces and the ladle doesn't get gaumed up with food residue and mold, so it's very easy to clean due to its smooth contours.

I always enjoy your videos, it took me a while to get to this one but I don’t delete them. Always watching from Panama City Florida, USA. 🇺🇸

Sentimental kitchen utensils, I think most people from our generation has a few of them. When my mom passed away I had already lived out on my own for a very long time, but she had a few utensils I wanted and thankfully my sisters were fine with me taking them. One was her potato masher which she got when she got married in 1954, then there was her soup ladle and her mixing spoon, I also took her popcorn serving bowl, which we all had fond memories of. My daughter was married earlier this year and she constantly asks when she will get the rest of the utensils that belonged to memere', my sisters thought I should gift them to her for her wedding, but I just wasn't ready to let them go, especially the heavy weight mixing spoon that doesn't bend in cookie dough and the popcorn bowl. I did let her take the masher though. I'll let her take the rest when she tells me they are expecting, which fingers crossed will be soon. Love seeing your kitchen treasures, thank you for sharing.

I just discovered you and your videos this morning. After binge watching several different kinds, I am so glad to have found your channel! Thank you so much for sharing everything from folklore to recipes found only in our dear part of the world. I'm from Northwest Georgia and am grateful to God for my heritage. Sadly I've discovered many people from these parts (including some family members) are embarrassed because they were born and raised in our culture. After having literally traveled the world as an Air Force brat I was happy and blessed as an adult to decide to live here, in the little Georgia town where I was born. To me, there's no more beautiful place than our lush green hills, and our sparkling creeks, rivers, and lakes. Our people are a kind, giving lot, tough as pine knots and gentle as children. It's a blessing to live in such a lovely place.

You can't hardly beat rada, can ya? I have several knives and the vegetable peeler. I have the scalloped chopper and I've used it to make coleslaw for almost 50 years now, best household shower gift ever. Everytime my husband eats someone else's coleslaw, he whispers to me, "somebody needs to get them a chopper thang" 🤣 (it makes small pieces of cabbage)

I should have said that familiar tools and experienced hands do the best work.

Thank you for this one, Tipper. It's good to finally know for sure the different manufacturers. I appreciate that you took the time to do this one! Hugs

Tipper, this was a fun video for me, I love seeing you talk about your tools. They are treasures for sure! My kitchen tools are like old friends. Living alone I don't cook as much as I used to, but I still have and love all my old utensils. I have an old wooden handled spatula that we used frying eggs when I was a child...and that's a long time ago! The much-used kitchen tools become like a part of the family. Thank you for the tour through your treasures!

Thanks for sharing! My favorite biscuit cutter used to be an empty mushroom can with both ends cut out. I bent one end into egg shape and left the other end round because I needed an egg shaped cookie cutter one year for Easter cookies, so it became a dual purpose tool. Some helpful soul tossed it in the trash a few years ago, I think, not realizing I was keeping it on purpose. I have several of the one piece silicone spatulas and I love them, too. I have some stainless turners/spatulas made by ekco, as well as a couple of the square holed potato mashers, all from back in the late 1960s & early1970s. They are my go to utensils, along with some stainless restaurant spoons & ladles I picked up at rummage sale.

Tipper, I am wondering if maybe it’s not you but the size of the magnet? If it’s a tiny little magnet, I can’t use those either. The good ones are older and have a magnet the size of a quarter. Mine is red plastic and one of my prized possessions. If you go to yard, sales, etc. watch for one I am sure you wouldn’t be sorry. Love your channel. Thanks for all the things you share!

i love my Old hickory knives, i only have 2 knives i use that are not, a chefs knife and a meat clever.

My most favorite tool in my kitchen is a rolling pin, my granddaughter bought me. It is 100 + years old, it is made out of glass and has a screw-on lid at one end for ice water.

Thank you for this vid. I really enjoyed learning about someone else's favorite utensils. There are several of yours that I have similar favorites, too. Recently, I've been sorting and straightening up my kitchen drawers. I don't feel so bad about how many I have now that I see your collection, and explanation of how useful they all can be.

Big kitchen!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

One of my recent purchases is a pair of oven mitts. The reason I like these so well is because they fit like a glove with individual fingers. It makes getting my batter bowl out of the microwave easier and with a better grip. I use the batter bowl to make peanut brittle and you know how hot that sugary syrup has to get. This feels much more secure when doing that or when I’m gripping an iron skillet.

What we called a corn cutter was an adjustable piece of wood that fit over a bowl with a blade and a carved out area that fit the corn, made it real easy putting up corn every year, just swipe the ears down it all around and it was done in no time. And I don't know why folks say you can't use a metal spatula or egg turner on cast iron, our whole family has done it since as far back as I can remember, evidently it's the younger generations that assume that cause you ain't supposed to use metal on them no stick skillets that poisons your food that they think you can't use them on any skillet, which don't make no sense, else why would they have made them for so many, many years. So many kitchen knives got passed down over the years that many were wore down, they were made better and lasted longer. Seems like folks nowadays don't use graters anymore cause they buy pre shredded cheese that don't taste or even melt like cheese and buy pre shredded cabbage in plastic bags. Nowadays folks use electric mixers instead of tater mashers, but I tell ya right now, I could always get them taters smooth with an old tater masher, and a bunch of folks would get me to mash the taters for the meal from their kitchens, I just don't get what the big deal is. A rolling pin didn't get much use around my house, just used my hands to pat out biscuit dough, only ever used one for cookie dough, pie crust or keeping the husband in line.

Love your videos! I'm attracted to old things too! To this day, I use a big pastry board that my carpenter grandfather made for my mother. She made all her pies and pastries on it. When age caused her to abandon making pie crust in favor of store-bought graham cracker crusts, I asked if I could have it. I've made all my pies on it for over 30 years (and will later today when I make another blueberry pie!). I wouldn't part with it!
