My gift to myself was one that I found on e-Bay while looking for a
Kershaw Shun knife for my sweetie.  I collect antique Heisey glass in
one particular pattern...I got a celery dish, a tiny sauce dish, 7 tall
sherbert/champagnes and 4 wine glasses.

So what is a "celery dish"? Is this a dish shaped like celery? Or a  
special dish for serving celery? If the latter, what is it like?

A second gift is on order...Phillip gave me a ravioli maker that's an
attachment for my KitchenAid mixer.  However, in order to be able to use
it, I need the pasta roller...which he didn't realize until the thing
came in...so I ordered the pasta roller today

So what does a ravioli maker do for you? The pasta roller rolls the  
pasta out to a uniform shape, but what does the ravioli maker add to  
that which isn't just as easy doing by hand? You lay out one sheet of  
pasta, put scoops of filling on the pasta, then drape with another  
sheet and squeeze the sheets together between the filling, right?

What types of stuffed pasta are there? I can think of ravioli and  
manicotti, but are there more?
