I have duplicate sets of Pyrex measuring cups and it's still
hard to find one sometimes. I haven't even seen the two cup version
in a while. Stuff hides in corner cabinets.

Griddle spatulas, when I replace those I get two. I have three
chef knives but probably everyone does. I have a large and a smaller
all clad roasting pan.

So not much. I do have two crock pots right now, got a new one at
Costco last week and I'll donate the old one.

First thing we made with the new one, Damsel's Italian beef. Mmmm!
