Whisk--another favorite word--this one distinctly less glamorous than some of my other favorites, but still worthy of mentioning. Say it aloud, doesn't it have a fabulous sound--whisk, whisk, whisk. I love it! But there is more to this than just letters and sound, it is the whole idea of what whisking implies. Think of the tool: an artistic interweaving of fine gauge wire that is elegant and so effective. Say the word whisk and efficiency and simplicity come to mind. This is a tool that is no-nonsense and makes quick work of a given task. Need dinner is a jiffy? Crack open some eggs then whisk, whisk, whisk and you have the beginnings of an omlet or french toast batter. Sounds like my kind of tool.

I'm coming to find that the tools I thought of as unnecessary or irrelevant are none of those. The whisk falls into the "newly appreciated" catagory.
