the quality of my life just went up...

thanks to my new blender!! man, on the island trip, there was so much talk of hummus (initiated by myself, i believe) that i couldn't bear to live another day without it, knowing that all i needed was a blender. and i wasn't the only one....on the way back home, trisha (coworker friend) and i made 2 stops: one for a blender and another for chickpeas. the both of us soaked our chickpeas over night and went straight home after work to make the hummus....and voila! i even made my own tahini w/ the blender. it was an awesome meal, to say the least....and i guess that's why i'm sharing such a silly story.
tomorrow morning...fruit smoothie. it's amazing how one little appliance can affect your life.... =P
