A few kitchen tools I can't live without! Credits (clockwise, from left to right): Goodman's, Target, Amazon, Amazon

Earlier this month, I decided to clean out my kitchen cabinets and shelves -- and I was thoroughly amazed at the amount of kitchen gadgets I turned up. The funniest part? I seem to be using and re-using the same five kitchen tools over and over again. So, in the spirit of awards season, I've assembled a winners' list of my five favorite go-to kitchen tools. The envelope, please...

1. Magnetic Measuring Spoons, $7, Amazon
Yep, magnetic. These measuring spoons nest together for easy storage, but come apart when it's time for a quick use. Even better? The tiny tips are just small enough for a pinch of nutmeg. Comes in handy just about any time I'm cooking or baking.

2. Le Creuset Large Silicone Spatula Spoon, $12, Amazon
Part spoon, part spatula (Hollywood would call the coupling a "Spoonula"), this single tool can be used in approximately 1,346 ways. Quote me on that.

3. Cuisinart Smart Stick Hand Blender, $28,
Why bring the hot pot of soup to the blender when you can bring the blender to the hot pot of soup? Genius.

4. Polder See-Thru Triple Timer/Clock, $14, Amazon
Keep track of three different dishes --- at the same time. And the best part: a distinctly different alarm sounds for each dish.

5. Good Cook Orbi SafeCut Can Opener, $13, Target
A can opener sans the sharp edges? Perfect for hungry kiddies craving a bowl of Chef Boyardee.

What about you? What are a few tools you simply can't live without?
