That I really need a blender.
Not just in a "Ahhh', I'll get it in a few weeks" way, I mean, I seriously need one, it's what is missing in my life at this moment that can fix me in each and every possible way.

That if I don't get a blender today, with a load of frozen fruit, plan yoghurt and mussilli today, something very horrible will happen to me, something worst than not having a smoothy by lunch time, something like me being thrown out my house and my friends and family disowning me.

Hand blenders ftw.
You don't even have to blend hands with them.

I got one of those, can you make smoothys with them?
I want one of those blenders that you just bung the stuff in the jug thing, press the button, pour and drink.

Also, OMG OMG OMG: www.oldies.org.uk/?p=26061 - I'm going to have WORDS with all the people involved and see if I can adopt this one, if everyone says 'yes', I'll go down and pick her up at the weekend.

OMG! I am so jealous!!
My sister got given a two-year-old black labrador at a party. The owners were moving house and had no garden for him. I have dog envy.

no worries
soon you'll have a baby. It'll be like having a dog but louder

Yeah, but a baby isn't a dog :(

it's so much cooler than a dog
honestly. now baby is crawling and cruising everywhere, he's like a puppy, but a puppy who will one day grow up and fund my stay in a nursing home. he spends his days gnawing on the furniture, leaves puddles in strange places, and howls when he needs attention.
(I still really really want a dog though)

I love labradors, when someone tells me to think of the word 'dog', they're what comes into my head.
Such lovely personailtys and so perceptive to human needs.

my parents have always had labradors
they are the best dogs

My whippet is a shite dog
if you like dogs. But I don't, so she's cool. She doesn't slobber or shed hair everywhere, she doesn't bark and if it's raining or a bit cold she won't go for a walk, so for me she's the best dog ever. She's like a catdog.

small dogs are ok
as long as they aren't psycho yap machines.

for instance, I fucking hate jack russells

Not all Jack russells are yappy.

Also, yeah, I use a handblender for my smoothies.
Works fine; easier to clean.

Ohhhh, I'm going to give that a try at lunch =D

she doesn't mean she just smashes the fruit to a pulp with her hands

( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Wed 9 Jun 2010, 10:48, Reply)

ooh
get a food processor. I got a kenwood multipro one, and it's brilliant. it's got the blender attachment, but also all the other food processor-y shit. slicing vegetables with it is great fun, AND has the added bonus that it terrifies the baby (always hilarious).

Haha!
