Amazon Prime Big Deal Days ends tonight, but I know one person who already has everything she needs in the kitchen: my mom, Vicki. She earned her cooking stripes through my dad’s dislike of vegetables, my sister’s aversion to meat , and my “unreasonable expectations” vis-à-vis casual weeknight meals . But thanks to the nightly challenge that was feeding us, she turned into the creative, flexible, and intuitive cook she is today. You’re welcome, mom!

If you want to cook like Vicki but don’t have three impossible-to-please people on hand to push the limits of your skills and patience, the next best thing is to acquire the eight essential kitchen tools that helped her along the way. Shop her favorite Vitamix blenders , OXO cutting boards , KitchenAid stand mixers , and more while they’re up to 40% off before the major sale event ends.

KitchenAid Artisan Series 5-Quart Tilt Head Stand Mixer

I always come home to a freshly baked treat when visiting my parents in Denver. Whether it’s a chocolate chip banana muffin or my great-grandma’s famous chocolate Swiss roll with its signature coffee-chocolate frosting, it was undoubtedly made in the KitchenAid stand mixer my mom has owned for decades. It’s an appliance that’s built to last.

GreenPan 8-Inch Frying Pan Skillet

I’ll offer you the same advice my mom always gave me: Don’t procrastinate. Now is the time to add her favorite kitchen tools to your cart because Amazon’s October Prime Day ends tonight. They won’t be up to 40% off for much longer.
