Pamper Chef, my butt! Good morning. I'm still sore as hell from all the shoveling. I don't think it's fair. God put all the snow down here, you would think he could take it away. Guess not. Yesterday was kind of wild at work. Tons of people called to ask why we weren't open on Tuesday. We told them it was becasue of all the snow. Now of course "they" didn't leave the house but "we" were supposed to be open. I guess it's true that you can't be all things to all people. I'm going to a par-tay tonight. No, not the drink swilling, slow dancing, hot breathing kind of party. It's called a Pampered-Chef party. I think this is an oxy-moron. If you are a pampered chef, why do you need all those pots and pans and stuff. If your so pampered, someone else should be doing the cooking, right? I'm not real excited about going. I ordered once from these people. I picked out the "LARGE" microwave pot for veggies. It has a vented top and supposedly after the veggies are cooked, you turn it upside down to drain the liquid. This won't work for me for two reasons. One, I drain my veggies (canned) before I put them in the microwave. Then I cover them with seasonings and butter so I don't want to toss the liquid anyway. Next, if you want to serve four people freshly cooked fresh veggies, you are not going to have many on the plate because this thing is tiny. I would hate to see what the "Little" one looks like. I am going anyway as a favor to the friend hosting it. I will find something to order. It can keep the previousley ordered pot company on my shelf of "For Display Only" items on my Bakers rack. I have a bunch of items that fit that description. I have a perfectly good meat slicer. Have I used it? Nope, it's easier to have them slice it for me at the deli. I have a vegetable chopper. Do I use it? Not much. It talkes less time to just chop them on the chopping board than to pull out the chopper, use it, take it apart, clean it and dry it. Electric frypan? Total waste. Electric curly fry slicer? Nope. Last time I looked, they come premade and presliced in the frozen section of your favorite market. So if you were to walk into my kitchen, you would think I was Julia Childs, but in reality, I'm more the meat and potato type of gal. Chop it, toss it, cook it, eat it. Ok, I get creative sometimes, but that's only with the seasonings and the cooking. Prep time is just a boring necessity that I don't take much time with. Thanks again to all of you who are voting for me at Diarist.net. It is very much appreciated. Later... Later, Cosmic
