Our Beloved Liquificador

We have but one small appliance here in our teeny, tiny kitchen (if you don't count our half-size refrigerator and stove): the blender we treated ourselves to one day at the mall. But, it has taken on the roll of many others. In addition to the normal smoothies, we have also used it in making juice, chocolate milk, mashed potatoes, gravy, guacamole, and chocolate chip cookie dough, to name just a few applications. In the States, I used my blender, but not frequently--really just for smoothies and milkshakes. But, now, my eyes have been opened to a whole new world of possibilities for this powerful little underappreciated workhorse. Now, if I can just get it to wash the dishes!
