Sea Turtles are one of my favorite marine animals. Every year we go down to Wildwood during the breeding season to just observe the sea turtles coming out of the water to lay their eggs. If you’ve never seen that in person…it’s something to see! …
We love fresh pineapple but they can be difficult to peel, core and slice with a chef knife. As we age it becomes even more difficult to get that task done. So, I decided to go shopping for a new Pineapple Peeler, Corer and Slicer. The first one that I purchased was complete junk so I returned it a week later. The second one though…is fantastic! It’s the best one that I’ve ever used.

I purchased the SameTech Stainless Steel Pineapple Peeler, Corer and Slicer from Amazon. This one easy-to-use kitchen tool will easily peel, corer, slice and if desired…cut the pineapple into wedges. All you need to do is cut the crown off of the pineapple (about an inch) and then twist the tool down through the center. The core goes into the tool and at the same time it’s removing the peel and slicing the fruit into the perfect sized rings!
What’s really nice is that it also comes with an easy-to-use wedger, so if you want pineapple wedges you use that tool to easily do that. As an added bonus…it’s made of stainless steel so for clean-up you can toss it into the dishwasher for cleaning or hand wash and air dry. I placed it into the utensils rack in the dishwasher and it came out sparkling clean. It’s a must-have if you enjoy freshly cut pineapple!
You can purchase the SameTech Pineapple Peeler, Corer and Slicer from Amazon for a really great price. Plus, it comes with the wedger too! If you have Amazon Prime it will ship for free. Gotta love using Amazon Prime!

Looking for a new manual kitchen can opener that is easy-to-use? One that doesn’t leave sharp edges around the lid or little metal shards floating inside the can? If so, you need to check out the new can opener that we bought from Amazon. It’s …
Cleaning the kitchen isn’t one of my favorite things to do. Matter of fact, I’ve never met a person who will admit that they enjoy spending hours cleaning doing it. With that said, I do enjoy cooking, baking and canning, so a dirty kitchen is …
Cleaning the microwave is one of my least favorite things to do. Since my wife broke her hand that chore has been left for me to do. Not only does a dirty mircorwave look bad but it’s unhealthy too! I don’t think anyone wants to stand there for an hour giving it a good scrub out. Okay, at least I don’t.

Four weeks ago I bought one of those microwave splatter covers and gave that a try. It was a brand that I had never heard of. I brought it home and we gave it a whirl. Well, within 2 weeks we tossed it out. It was flimsy and after just 2 weeks had already started to warp and get mis-shapened. What a piece of junk!
I went shopping on Amazon and found the Nordic Ware Microwave Splatter Covers and decided to buy that one. It arrived within 2 days (using Amazon Prime) and we gave that one a try. Well, I’m happy to report that we love it! It’s more substancial than the first one that we tried. It’s BPA and Melamine Free. Made in America by a family owned company that you can trust. A name brand that you know!
This spatter cover will fit 10″ dinner platers and the bacon grill plate (which I’m going to order next). It keeps the splatters contained and has a vented design to allow the steam to escape. For cleaning…you can hand wash in soapy water or place it in the dishwasher on the top rack. We’ve cleaned it both ways.
The days of having a messy microwave oven in our household are over! The days of standing there for an hour and scrubbing it clean are over!!! Not all microwave splatter covers are created equally. If you’ve been disappointed by the one you have or if you’re looking to buy one…I recommend giving the Nordic Ware Microwave Splatter Cover a try. It’s a winner in my book!
