flour sifter

A fun surprise in our new kitchen-- a flour sifter installed in a cabinet! It slides out, you remove a cap on the bottom and then turn the little crank...

inside

That spins the wire ball inside, stirring the flour and letting it fall through the screen-- hopefully into a bowl below. (Wasn't cleaned after last use, ew! I'm removing it, but hey, cool!)

Hey, I grew up with one of those! It was fabulous!

Oh the memories of my father getting flour for his Sunday pancakes...

Wow! That looks like an industrial sized flour sifter. But really, really useful. The little hand sifters take forever if you are doing a big batch.

Mom had something like this can opener in her pantry. http://www.amazon.com/Swing-Away-Wall-Can-Opener/dp/B0000505J1/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1443929013&sr=8-2&keywords=wall+mounted+can+opener It was absolutely the best can opener I ever used. The current tenants didn't want it so it mounted, and I don't use cans at home more than very occasionally, so mom's old one is languishing in a drawer.
