Our blender is about 5 years old and has a crack in it so I am very, very careful when blending hot soup. It’s had a good life and was actually a birthday present from my friend Sarah about 5 years ago. The highlight of its career was probably cocktail parties at home and on holiday (yes, I pack a blender with me while on holiday, don’t you?). Fruit, ice, booze, no trouble. But it’s time it was replaced.
By something younger, slimmer and prettier.
The Koala surprised me with this magic wand for my birthday (strawberry smoothies not included).
Yes! It’s red! It’s a Cuisinart Smart Stick Hand Blender. But I’m just going to call it my magic wand.
Now I can use this magic wand for those soups and cocktails. Less clean up too 🙂
