Blenders

I use my blender on a nightly basis, to make my protein smoothie for breakfast the next morning. I'm using this cheap Walmart blender that I think I bought while in college. It's as lame as lame gets with a blender, and it really doesn't do a very good job of blending things.

It's kind of like if you had a car with square wheels. Or if you tried using a walkie talkie as a cell phone to call your friend in Luxembourg. Or if you had one piece of string when what you really needed was a grocery bag. Or if you had ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife.

Anyway, I need something that is gonna last me a while. Also, something that isn't going to cost me $400. And something that won't leak while it sits in the fridge overnight. And something that isn't such a freakin' pain in the ass to handwash. So I went online today to check out some consumer reviews and came across this little gem at Amazon:
I have not actually used this product myself but I purchased it as a replacement for one that broke and it belonged to my sister. She seemed happy to get it and even though I have not asked, I think she's happy with the way it works.
I'm convinced! LOL

  1. I've also been considering getting a new blender. (actually my first blender). I don't eat enough fruit/vegetables, but I think I would if I started blending fruit drinks.

    Well anyway, I was considering something simple and sexy: the Oster Classic Beehive Blender.
