Ka-ching

[cjsmith]

Today I also bought two spatulas (spatulae? *grin*) and a food processor. Rob says I need to get the hang of this "saving money" thing. I think he's right -- I probably could have found a used food processor, if I'd spent some time at it, though time is kinda the problem -- but I also suspect that eating my own cooking with so little waste thus far may already have gone a long way toward purchasing me this thing. It *was* nearly fifty percent off when all the discounts came in. It's one of these, and OMG no, I did not pay THAT for it.

One of my spa-tu-lee is already noticeably yellow. To give you an idea, it started out black. Heh heh heh. The food processor has yet to be unveiled, 'cause I already had the spinach and onion chopped for the palak paneer.

(Also today: bean soup. Onion roast going in tonight. I will be busy scrubbing a crock in 3... 2... 1...)

Oh I'm so glad you said that! Your opinion on kitchen objects I trust. And it's even dishwasherable!

NEXT onion roast I am not going to shed a single tear. (This one I chopped the onions yesterday & have 'em in a little bag in the fridge.)

That's very similar our machine, perhaps a bit bigger and older. We replaced the blade, but because it was lost, not broken.

I wouldn't have minded the smaller version I found, which is only 3 cups of capacity rather than 7. But the small one comes with only ONE blade, the "blender blade". I wanted slicer and grater. Ah well, a 7 cup one goes in the dishwasher just as easily as a 3 cup one!

Yep, I've had one of these since (counts on fingers) 1990 or so (not the fancy stainless steel version, the original). Still use it, too.

Awesome! This is going to be SO GOOD. Enough with the effing ONION CHOPPING.

(I am getting better at that, though. Step 1: Buy the onions in the morning and put them in the fridge until evening! That helps lots.)
