Basics to collectibles -its all here
Pots, pans, skillets, grills, griddles and more! Cooking is a daily part of our life, so I use a lot of cookware- cast iron, non-stick, spoons, spatulalas etc.
I LOVE my cast iron pans. Yes, they can be a little pricey, but the quality is what you are buying. I would rather one great pan than 5 cheap pans that ruin the food cooked in them.

More cast iron- but more for grills. I love to cook outdoors and on the stove top- so having the option for both is ideal in our home. And yes- I love to cook.

Wooden Spoons, yes. High-quality ones are so much better. Take care of them, and they will last forever. Can't afford the good ones? Buy them at your local walmart- they will split or splinter after a while - but work for a few meals.

Plastic cups - we like these! You can find them sometimes on clearance. But for $1 they are still great.

We have this exact cup, and we love it. It keeps our drinks cold in the summer and hot in the winter. Down side - doesn't fit in the car holders.
