I bought some non-stick frying pans a year ago (Farbarware), and they were not durable at all. It was a set of 2 that I bought, an 8 inch and a 10 inch. The finish wore off after about 3 months from the outside and inside... and I had only ever used plastic or wooden utensils in them. Also, the handles came loose where they were riveted on and had play in them. But... mine weren't that expensive and they were from Wal-mart so maybe the ones from Kohls are better... especially since they are stainless steel and not non-stick. So that's my experience with the new Farberware (though I love my Farberware spoonula and box grater)... I replaced them with a 30 dollar Wearever frying pan and haven't been disappointed since. If you buy them and like them, please report back! My stock pots are very cheap/thin and I've been looking for some decent ones. Good luck!

I'm in Canada and am crazy about online shopping since selection in my parts is meh to dire. I order frequently from the American Amazon site! Love it! I got all my doorknobs there, still less than half what I would pay around here. I had to return a doorknob and the process was painless except I was on the hook for some of the return shipping. Have ordered many times from O.co and very satisfied. Got some floor and wall tile through them. Have ordered a few times from 1stoplighting's Canadian version, canadalightingexperts. Pretty satisfied. Have not yet had a return to them. Did order one item that is permanently out of stock and to this day it is still on their website -- but they did notify me quickly and gave me a 10% coupon for a reorder. I see build.com now has a Canadian site...things are looking up up here!

I just wanted to report that I went to Joann Fabrics and checked out the Diaper Cloth. I was very disappointed in it as it was not 100% cotton, but rather a cotton/ poly blend, at least that's what my store sells. I'm still planning to make washable non-paper towels and I think what I'm going to do in order to save money since these will be used only for clean up of kitchen messes and wiping sticky kid hands..is..walmart sells a 10 pack of 28×28 flour sack towels for 8$ ....cut each one in four gives me 4 ...14×14 ..so 8 dollors will yeld 40 of these. This is very cheap and cost effective for a fabric that's 100% cotton, absorbant, and bleachable. The size is right even if it should shrink slightly. Will only take minutes to run the edges off on the machine and will be fun for Amiee to do. I think I'll do 3 packs giving me 120 at a cost of 24$ what do you think?

A lot of the mess is the carriers fault. I ordered a kindle fire hd 10 from Amazon. It said it was delivered even though it wasn't. I called Amazon and they called ups. UPS asked a bunch of questions about my address and did I check everywhere a package could be left before I finally just asked them to call their delivery driver. I got a call back about an hour later saying that the driver still had the package and would meet me at a local Winn Dixie after he got done for the day if I wanted. I asked them to just deliver it the next business day instead. When they didn't,I called and they asked was I SURE that I asked that it be delivered? Uh,yeah,that's why you have it genius. She offered to have it delivered the next day. I just went to ups and picked it up myself. Amazon was very helpful. They followed up with me to make sure i got my package. UPS,not so much. Fed ex continues to leave my packages at my neighbors house despite explicit directions and a clear address marker. The regular USPS driver keeps putting my neighbors mail in my mailbox. My mailbox is a locking one,so I always get a stack of her mail with a little note from the mailman-"oops,please give this to your neighbor thanks." Also,I suspect that this time of year is nuts at Amazon's warehouses, and a missed item is easy to overlook. Not a good excuse. But my experience with them is that they take your word for it and do the best they can to rectify the problem.

If you live in the mid-Atlantic area, their free shipping is wonderful. They ship out of a warehouse in south central Pennsylvania. I've had items arrive before they notified me that the item had been shipped. Two days is the usual turn around.

I do check to make sure I'm buying from Amazon and not one of their partners, otherwise it can take forever to get things.

Isn't it fun, knowing that your nifty new kitchen stuff is headed towards your door? I'm in the same boat - the new Pinzon pieces (3-1/2qt. saucepan and 10qt. stockpot) I ordered on the 24th from Amazon will be delivered today and I am in a fever to try them out.

My DH chuckles at me and my son calls me a nerd, lol. :-)

So, did it arrive? Have you cooked in it yet?

Waiting for something to arrive always makes me hum the "Wells Fargo Wagon" song from Music man.

yes, it arrived yesterday just in time for me to cook dinner in it.

I made a pot of yellow rice and pan seared a chicken breast.

While I've only used it once, at this point I really like it.

Nicely made and it has good heft and balance.

Last night I cleaned all of the old cooking utensils out of the cabinet. I decide to keep 1 non-stick pan, my old aluminum dutch oven that was my Grandmothers, and a few other smaller items. The rest of the stuff is getting pitched or Freecycled.
