After watching the demonstration, eating some good food and checking out all of the gadgets I decided on purchasing The Chopper. Since I’m usually the one that does the prep work in our house, this little gadget will make my chopping and dicing go a lot faster. Plus, Miss K can join in the fun since the blades are completely covered, even when you’re chopping. Everyone else at the party was more versed in the Pampered Chef paraphernalia than I was and the recommendation from the group was, if you’re going to by one thing, make it The Chopper. So I placed my order. It arrived last night!
You may remember the post two Fridays ago in which the dishwasher exploded in one big mass of suds. Turns out yours truly accidentally put in regular dishwashing soap instead of dishwasher soap. After an afternoon of bailing water and suds (with some help from the 3 year old of course…she was the “dumper” meaning she got to dump the cupfuls of water into the sink), things were working just fine. Until this past Friday night when Ted got ready to start up a full load of dishes and found out that it wouldn’t turn on. At first he tried switching off the breaker for it and turning it back on (when all else fails…reboot!) but it was no use. Seems the electrical panel was shot…bye bye dishwasher. We got a GREAT deal on a new one at Sears but it won’t arrive until the 30th, so in the meantime we’re sticking to paper plates and easy to prepare meals that require as few dishes as possible. So you know what this means, my brand new Chopper is sitting, unused on the kitchen counter, taunting me. Next week buddy, you and I have some serious work to do...
