I have a *rolling pin collection*(apx.10)..Several toy ones, one very

skinny one and several huge rolling pins. I have no idea what some were

used for especially the long skinny one, so if any of you know please

let me know. I love the litle toy ones. I also have a large collection

of wooden cooking spoons, forks, dippers, spatulas, etc.

I got my rolling pin through airport security in my carry-on when I went to

see my sister for Thanksgiving. I didn't think she had one, and she wouldn't

use it enough to justify buying one when I got there. When I unpacked my

bag, she laughed her head off, imagining how I would explain to secuirty why

I had a large rolling pin on the plane... I guess the cookie cutters could

have been considered weapons, but I also took a whole handful of razors (the

kind you use to shave your legs) back with me, no problem.

The one I threw away was one of the plastic ones that you fill with

water. It was useless. And I don't think it is even around any more.

Hey, it may even be an antique and worth some money. <g>

I LOVE interesting rolling pins! I have a neat one that is very short....it

is

from the UK and is called a " dumpy " rolling pin because it is kind of

" dumpy " in comparison to a long, slender, rolling pin. I find myself using

it more than

any of my other rolling pins. The newest rolling pin I have is about 25

years old

and my husband bought it for me for our second Christmas together....it is one

of the neat marble ones. I am one of those women who loves to get anything

connected with cooking as a gift.

 

And, talking about sugar cookies....my recipe is easy to roll out too....but,

my

15 year old grandson told me at Christmas that if I will just make him a whole

batch of sugar cookies, all for him (that he doesn't have to share with any of

his 4 little brothers)....that is all he wants for his birthday in

September. I think I can handle that one! Only thing is, I will make some

so

the little boys can all have some too.

Hi Sue.....

Could you be talking about one of the old Tupperware rolling pins with one end

rounded

and the other with the white screw-on cap? I never thought they were great

rolling pins but

I love using one when we go camping. You can pour cracked eggs, very gently,

down into

it, screw on the lid and then put it in your ice chest without having to worry

about cracked eggs

or a soggy carton. I also put my homemade dry pancake mix into it and then

just add

eggs, oil and water....shake it up and pour the batter out onto the skillet on

the campstove.

I have a couple of them that I use just for camping. I keep an eye out for

them at garage

sales and at thrift stores so I can get them for my grown kids to use camping

too.

Nancy, *twin sister* (separated at birth LOL), Oh yes and we are

neighbors. Well sorta. LOL Just come on by anytime and we'll roll out

some dough and talk " old kitchen things " .

Some of my favorite vintage kitchen utensils are potato mashers, hand

carved wooden spoons, forks and porcelain water dippers. Most of them I

use in the kitchen and they are always displayed on the counter or in a

vintage kettle on the floor. The rolling pins too. I just wish that I

knew the history of each one. My 89 yr. old mother still has her

mother's bread pans.

Deanna......

I would love to drop by and cook with ya! Maybe someday.

 

If you will email me privately at: nancihank I can email you

some

of the pictures I have of some of my old kitchen stuff. If it had

to do with the kitchen area or eating AND it is OLD.....I probably have one, or

some, and love it.

 

Most of all, you are so lucky to have your mother......I envy you. I lost my

mother in

1984 when she was only 58 from lung cancer. Give your mother a big hug and

kiss

from this Texas girl who misses her mother so much.....ok?

here is my one and only rolling pin. I love it and use it all the time

for any thing that needs to be rolled out. It makes spreading out any

dough, a breeze. You just grab it in the middle and press the rolling

pin in the direction you want the dough to go. It is so easy. I gave

my other rolling pins away when I bought this one.

 

Here is what mine looks like.

Judy......

I have one that looks just like that one too! I use it for pizza dough

or rolling out cracker dough mostly. I found it at the local Goodwill

years ago. I love the Goodwill!

That's the one, Nancy. Tupperware. What a great idea for camping. I

will have to remember that. I do put eggs in a plastic bottle, very

carefully, so they don't break, but adding the pancake mix is a much

better idea. Thanks for the heads up.

:-D So that's what that is!

I found one at the Goodwill but thought it was a brayer.

I'll go get it out of the craft stuff and put it in the kitchen!
