Christmas present

Stick blender and accessories at Bed Bath and Beyond.

This was my first stick blender.  The motor wasn’t very powerful, and the chopper bowl was too small to grind a single can of garbanzo beans into hummus.  I “limped along” for several years before I finally bought a newer Braun MultiQuick set.  The new set was more powerful and had a larger chopper bowl.  With the new unit I could grind a whole can of Chickpeas into hummus and the motor didn’t grind to a halt.

ADDENDUM [10/18/22]: I had mentioned to Dr. Hendricks that I had eaten breakfast in Spartanburg, SC once and had livermush (which my community called “liverpudding”). I didn’t recall the name of the restaurant, nor why I was in Spartanburg that early in the morning, but just found where I had posted these photos & audio regarding my restaurant experience. Papa’s Breakfast Nook is still in business. *I see I ate lunch (not much later) at the Longhorn Restaurant (also in Spartanburg), and that I had stayed at the Double Tree Inn, but I don’t recall that stay.

I think I had probably stayed at a motel in Columbia, SC and Spartanburg was another stop along the way. I think this would have been when I drove through the Wofford College campus, and I think I saw new student housing (“The Village“), which I may have gone online and seen how “opulent” these new “digs” were. The online advertising starts with, “The Village apartments offer residents beautiful Charlestonian-style housing with porches or balconies.” Apparently, this housing is for Seniors, and it looked impressive to me, even ten years ago.

I mentioned Dr. Hendricks because he had told me one time that he had taught at Wofford College many years ago.
