Your Kitchen Must-Haves / Dream Kitchen

The only thing my kitchen is missing is a pantry. 

SPACE!

I have about 1 metre of work surface, a tiny oven and a sink, i only have 1 double cupboard, so more space would be lovely. Also budget dictates most of my purchases so I have very little kitchen stuff, I only have 3 pans for instance, a good frying pan, a really good saucepan and a milk pan

I'm also coveting the following items :

I'm nowhere near fabulous at it, but I love baking.  My dream kitchen would definitely have to include a convection oven, a partial marble/marblelike surface for rolling, and a HUGE space for prep bowls, mise en place, etc.  And some sort of super neato way of storing sugar, flour and the basics so I can get to them easily without having to drag them up and down from the cupboard every single time.

And my Kitchen Aid stand mixer.  I love it, and do not know how I managed to live as long as I did without it.

A maid in mine please!

A maid in mine please!

Heee!! I'll see your maid and raise you a sous chef! I love cooking but I hate all the prep work!

I'll hold on to the maid, but would like to have a rotation of fabulous chefs who come in and cook for me on weekends.

I have a blender I rarely use, a food processor that's only been used about twice, a toaster oven that DS uses to cook his frozen French bread pizzas and other stuff taking up valuable real estate. On the other hand, DH uses the bread machine several times a week (wish he wouldn't -- not helping my waistline)

Ah no, I thought she was looking for a cake safe - the Tupperware kind with a lid that snaps securely on so you can just pick it up and travel with it! Sorry my misunderstanding, as that's the sort we were looking for that we couldn't find anywhere.

That's the Tupperware Expressions Cake Server:

All available in the UK through your local Tupperware consultant -- including me!

My new stove has issues with two of the burners    When you turn them up or down at one point they will simply cut out.  Warrantly should cover it -- but annoying.

Just to follow this up, Tupperware UK has relaunched the classic cake-takers:
