Starting today I’m going to periodically do a giveaway of one of my favorite things. Today’s giveaway is a set of magnetic measuring spoons made by Progressive International, Inc.
Last year my mom read about these measuring spoons in Real Simple magazine and decided to order them. I remember her excitedly telling me about them and then finally seeing them for myself. I immediately understood why my mom loved them so much–they were awesome! My mom was sweet enough to share the love and give me my own set. So what is so great about these measuring spoons?
The spoons are a five-piece measuring set with both standard and metric measurements. Magnets in the spoons keep them nested together when not being used. The spoons have a flat base that allow them to rest on the counter without tipping over. The spoons are double ended. One end has a narrow, oblong shaped end that will fit into most spice jars.
The other end is round and great for measuring liquids.
Not only is it nice to have those options, but it also comes in handy if one end gets dirty and then you need to measure out something else.
Not only are these spoons the best measuring spoons I’ve ever used, but they’re cute too! I have an extra set that Fuji Nana has donated for this giveaway and I want one of you to have them! To enter the giveaway I want you to leave me a comment telling me what your favorite kitchen tool or gadget is and why. For a second entry in the giveaway, just leave a second (separate) comment letting me know if you are a Follower or a Subscriber. I will keep the comments open until Sunday, April 5th, 10 pm PST, and announce the winner (using a random number generator) on Monday.
** The contest is now closed.**

My favourite tool would have to be my KitchenAid mixer. I killed two handheld mixers(to the point of smoking!) trying to make royal icing. I also use it regularly to knead bread dough, and is almost essential for making italian merengue buttercream. I call it my baby, its like the racecar of the kitchen.

Thank you for having the giveaway Fuji Mama! So my fav kitchen tool is definitely my dough scraper. There’s nothing else that will work better for scraping and cutting dough!

These are so cool. I knew I was missing something when I gave up my subscription to Real Simple. Love any kind of kitchen gadgets. Love my pampered chef chopping tool probably the most.

I would so love to win this! Living in Portugal where we use the metric system but loving to try American recipes, this would avoid all the work converting between cups and grams. Thanks much! BTW I read about your blog at Lolly Chops.

My favorite kitchen gadget: small gadget would be my immersion blender and large “gadget” would be my Bosch mixer.
Blessings,

M favorite kitchen gadget is the VitaMix. We use it for everything — I can’t tell you how many blenders we buried before buying it. (As a family of 12, we tend to put our gadgets to the test!)
