Lyndsay_21

wow the magic bullet we want to my mother in laws over xmas and new year and she had one and it was soooo good i really want one might look on ebay now to see what they've got any.....

Ticklemouse

I have over the years, accumulated many gadgets, apart from usual kettle, toaster, microwave .....

Slow cookers - large and medium. used all the time, summer and winter.

Kenwood Chef - has been brought out of hibernation now I'm an OSer and used fairly often.

George Foreman - bought because we have a !!!!!! grill, and although used, I wouldn't replace when it does go, or at least I'd buy one with removeable plates for cleaning.

Stick blender - used fairly often

Electric steamer - used fairly often and I'm on my 3rd one (1st one died of overuse, 2nd one dropped by Mr TM)

Juicer - used sporadically, either lots or not at all.

Breadmaker - used lots

Electric carving knife - free with BM. Still in its bag. Prefer 'real' knives

Leccy can opener - when you get used to it, you don't want to go back to a traditional one

In garage - leccy frying pan (gift) Kenwood chefette (bought pre- Chef)

What I want is a magic bullet Can't justify it though.

I had never heard of this. I had to do a search on google as it sounds like something you would get from Ann Summers!!

Ticklemouse - it'll save you money in the long run. I never buy fresh pasta sauce now!

1 tin tomatoes, fresh basil, clove garlic, couple cubes cheese, whiz in bullet then put the whole thing in microwave to heat, then serve!!!

Or, carton single cream, cubed cheese, whiz in blender, add diced/sliced ham, heat and serve!!

Or - broccoli and cheese soup. Put fresh broccolli in blender cup with little chicken stock. Heat in microwave until tender. Add more stock, cubed cheese, garlic clove, seasoning and a little cream to cup, whiz up then heat and serve.

Or - i make my own meringues, whip up some cream in one cup, and whiz up some frozen berries and a little icing sugar in the other cup and you have an instant dessert!! Meringues with berry coulis and whipped cream

I could go on all night about what I make in mine!! And it's so small that it stays on the kitchen bench and not in the back of the cupboard

George Foreman grill on our third 1st was to small, 2nd died from over use. It get used 4 or 5 times a week.
Food Processor. Love it to make cakes and also coldslaw. It also has a blender attachment for soaps etc
Bread maker . Has been retreived from the garage since going OS
Stick blender. Bought for baby food always seem to end up wearing whatever I'm blending.
Kenwood. Has just died but it was my nans so its at least 30 years old. May try and get a replacement motor from ebay as I loved it for making large batches of cake and dough.
Slow cooker. Loving it only got it resently but i think I could do with a smaller one as well.

My kitchen is tiny and I'm having probs fitting all these gadget in so will have to resist buying any more
