Welcome to the Grand Opening

of my new Immersion Blender Shelf. It's part of my ongoing kitchen reorganization that allows me to use more of my cooking tools.


There are 3, a red Oster in back, Hamilton-Beach, silver, and the white one in the back, which I can't find the brand name. It's very easy to use because you don't have to put it together, like the others. The shelf allows me easy access and I can quickly take whichever one is most suitable for the task.

Before, I had to get into a cabinet. Each one was stored with its attachments in an individual box. This was not conducive to quick cooking.




The Oster in use, and what you see is a strawberry-banana milkshake.

Next up is my "appliance garage." It's actually in good shape; just needs a little tidying. It holds my heavy duty blender and mixer.

Storing these devices is always a challenge. I like your idea of an appliance garage.

Have fun and cook well, (I know you will!).

Storing gadgets in a way that makes them easily accessible is always a challenge!

Mr. Diamond made me a pull-out drawer sturdy enough to hold my Kitchen Aid stand mixer. It’s about waist high for me so I can grab it, turn around and, and set it on the counter. No back breaking lifting from the bottom cabinet. It’s a real back-saver.

What a sweetheart! It makes all the difference in the world as to how much one uses these appliances if they are handy and convenient.
