I like measuring temperatures while cooking.  I want to get a IR unit so
that I can also measure the temps of pans for sauteing.

And a good oven unit would probably also be handy.

Now, you will be a real food geek when you start cooking by weights
instead of volumetric measurements.

I still have to really get started on the later, but first I need a
decent pair of scales.  One regular digital kitchen scale, and one that
is acurate to 0.01g.
