May 29th, 2007 - Confession time
Ooops, I forgot about something else I bought. A week ago, I went with Ruth to a Pampered Chef party, hosted by a lady I also knew. I told myself before going that I was not going to buy anything. I did. Four things. Two we need, silicone spatulas and I kept myself to one skinny and one regular. We have some, but they broke quickly and while we still use them, it’s not real pleasant to do so–I always wonder if another piece will break off into the food. Or with the skinny one, it’s not very easy to actually scrape inside the bottle. The other two weren’t needed. One’s a handy tool for holding onto things like onions and tomatoes while slicing them. I’ve done just fine with my hands, but this will be safer and easier. The other is a set of 6 1-cup prep bowls. They are glass at least. But have plastic lids. I’ve been wanting something like this for a while but making do with other things already around the house. Which I probably could have continued with. On the other hand, perhaps I will get rid of some of the plastic bowls I’ve used which would be a good thing.

[…] I felt bad about the glass prep bowls I bought at a Pampered Chef party. I don’t feel bad anymore! They are glass containers, which means I can use them instead of plastic! (and we all know the evils of plastic, right?) I’ve brought them to work almost every day since they were washed–applesauce, salad dressing, custard. They’re a perfect size for a bunch of lunch things. […]
