My rocket blender broke and I didn't get to make the chocolate almond cherry smoothies I'd been looking forward to. So I'm sitting here all grumpy, "stuck" with a porridge of berries, almond butter, milk, honey, and cocoa nibs.
And it dawned on me that just a few hundred years ago, this lame excuse for dessert probably would have cost the equivalent of several hundred dollars for the cocoa nibs alone. And I remembered that we're actually doing pretty good all things considered.
@egypturnash I don't think it's fixable, motor''s broken, but I can get it replaced for like $20.
@zebratron2084 I just went out in my back yard and picked a bowl full of ripe blackberries, which are currently sitting in the fridge cooling off. tryina decide if I'm going to marinade them lightly in cheap vodka before putting them on ice cream or what. I have to admit I *really really* like living now. :D
