description: Even the busiest, most kitchen-clueless woman dreams of one day making the perfect egg salad sandwiches for ladies' luncheons and baby showers. But until then, she's stuck in her kitchen for one, where she can't tell a can opener from a whisk, haricots from Gruyere, or carmelized from caramel.
