This 30 year old blender is one of Eli's "perfectly good" house hold items. Except for the minor detail that it's missing the stopper for the lid.
So, when I get home from a long day in the office ( Sam, drop what you're doing! There is a red light blinking on the copy machine!) and I just want a boozy blended beverage on the back porch, instead I get ice shards and lime juice shooting out of the top like Old Faithful.
Luckily, I was in MacGyver mode and spotted the perfect plug on the kitchen counter.
Sometimes, when life gives you lemons they're exactly what you needed.
Great idea - and although you might see your blender as outdated, I think it's charming!
ReplyDeleteYour work day sounds a lot like mine, except usually the printer is jammed or an errant letter in MS Word was bolded or italicized. Sigh.
DJ : oh girl, I totally get it!
ReplyDeleteAnd luckily I'm a fan of anything "vintage" so I get quite a bit of joy out of this old blender.
