One man's trash is another man's treasure....

Now that the school year is just around the corner, I'm going to ask for help to make my garden and cooking activities more dynamic - using what I've learned during my Aussie adventure. Currently, I have a limited mish-mash of kitchen equipment that I use for cooking and even less for the garden. In order to be more creative, it would be wonderful to have some additional equipment. So....here's my call to arms. If anyone has old kitchen / garden equipment collecting dust in their basement or garage that they would like to part with, please let me know! Here are some things that would come in handy: food processor, electric mixer, mixing bowls, electric fry pan, measuring cups, general utensils (wooden spoons, soup ladle, etc), gardening gloves (kids), watering cans, hand shovels, rake, wheelbarrow, magnifying glasses, butterfly nets...One of the big lessons that I learned from the kitchen and garden specialists...reduce, reuse, recycle, scour garage sales, put out wish lists and never say no to help!
