On the seventh night of Chanukah, I did not give to you...

Happy Chanukah!

All good things must come to an end*, and here we find ourselves on the penultimate day of the Holiday of Hanukah!

Even though  Chanukah is coming to an end, the gifts I am not giving may continue to bring joy! After all, one can access the blog any time!

While reviewing the blog, I've noticed something: some of these gifts my DSIL (or other blog followers) have actually bought for themselves! Gifts not given in Chanukahs past, such as Poo-Pourri,  have gone mainstream** and I've seen Squatty Potties at the homes of some of my near and dear! Remember when George Takei picked up on my gift of the Shitten?

What, you might be wondering, did I choose not to give you last night?

I've been cooking more recently. So thinking of things around the kitchen, I recalled when I didn't buy for you the Easy Egg Cracker. (Because, how hard can cracking an egg be?) I didn't buy for you a toaster.



I did not buy for you Ninja Cookie Cutters. Or the "Rainbow" Cookie cutter with the unfortunate silhouette.

Last night, I did  not give to you some additions to your kitchen collection.

This is a grape slicer. Apparently, grapes are just TOO HARD TO SLICE.

Why wouldn't I give this to you?

First of all, it's plastic. I'm trying to avoid plastic. So, no.

Next, is this grape slicer truly the best design?

What about this one?



Or this?



How about this?

Too many options. Which one makes the cut?

Staying with food prep, here is another handy gadget I'm not getting you:







This is an automatic pan-stirrer with timer. This saves you the tedium of stirring constantly and times your dish! What's not to love?

Well...

I've been watching Santa Clarita Diet. This looks like a tall slim cousin of Mr. Ball Legs.




Bon appetit

* "All good things must come to an end" and also all not-good things, right? (Asking for a friend)
** Mainstream... there must be a bathroom joke in there somewhere..
