Aug. 22nd, 2005 06:43 amThere's a toy that we've had our eye on for awhile, and we finally bucked up and got one on Saturday.
( Picture behind a cut. )
It doesn't have as much torque as some of the other models they sold, but it looks way cooler, and I think it's got sufficient power for anything we plan to do. Mom owns the same brand/model (though she's only got the 3-quart bowl) and hers has been going strong for 20 years.
I put it to the test shortly after we got it home. I thawed some of the pumpkin I roasted last year and made a couple of pies. The last couple of times I made these I made the pie shells by hand, using a pastry cutter.
Now I know how a caveman would have felt upon discovering satellite television. How did I ever get by without this?
I think the pies turned out well - leastwise nobody complained about them.
