Chef's knife is definitely not boring and may not be as obvious as you think. I come from a family that has only ever used cheap paring knives for everything that have never even been in the same room as a sharpener. Meanwhile, I haven't made a single dish without my Henckels since I bought it 5 years ago. My GIR silicone turner is a close second
I've gotten a significant amount of mileage out of BudgetBytes. I especially enjoy the ingredient cost breakdowns even if they're outdated or inaccurate. My other big source lately has been Food Network's Worst Cooks in America (typically features dishes that are easy to learn)
