Some days, I enjoy being ignorant! (I HAVE A BLENDER!)
Were it not for ignorance, when would I be able to take joy in realizing things?
I have just purchased my first blender. It has a 750 watt motor. You know what turns to soup in that thing when you hit the puree button?
FRIGGIN' ANYTHING.
Why didn't I realize this earlier, and why didn't it dawn on me just how essential this piece of equipment is?
Being the soup-freak that I am, this is going to be sooo awesome... It is this bachelor's new best friend. Tonight, I made soup out of out two cans of stewed/diced tomatoes and a can of baked beans that were just languishing in my cupboard, and it was fantastic! Add some breadsticks, a few herbs and spices and a little grated cheese, and you've really got something there...
Who knows what I'll make into soup next...?

A blender once saved my life in my second year at Uni. True story.
They are awesome for making soup - try putting bacon, potato and leek in the blender.
Feckin' ace...

Immersion blenders are where it's at. Run it under a tap, and it's clean. Bam.

I'm going to buy one too. But mostly for serving alcoholic beverages.
You should check out this guy who sells blenders and as a form of promotion put some videos on the web ("can I blend it" or something) in which he blends things that are not supposed to be blended
Hurray for boobies!

This is one of my favorite recipes.
Cream of Tomato Soup
2 (15-ounce) containers, chicken or vegetable stock/broth (preferred brand: Kitchen Basics)
1 (28-ounce) can concentrated crushed tomatoes
1 cup heavy cream (if you're health conscious you can use half & half instead)
Coarse salt and black pepper
Combine broth and tomatoes in a medium saucepan over moderate heat. When soup bubbles, stir in heavy cream and reduce heat to low. Season with a little salt and pepper and simmer gently 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. With an immersion blender, puree soup. Enjoy!
Think twice, post once.

Well, mine's got 3-4 pieces plus a gasket, and I like to be thorough with cleaning stuff like this -- but it's pretty easy, really.

But therein lies the beauty, doesn't it? Because there are no rules... It's culinary anarchy, my friend -- a veritable "Island of Doctor Cordon Bleu"! Imagine the taste possibilities... A thought comes to mind: a soup made of three parts steamed squash and one part raw... ...banana? Provocative, and yet, probably tame compared to what's possible and possibly good...
I shall have to ponder some more exotic possibilities... In the meantime, please post any more favorite recipes or bizarre hybrids you yourself have tried!

They certainly are a lifesaver at times lol.
Don't forget the most essential food item to make with it.....smoothies!
In anime or manga, Japan being blown up by a nuclear attack is merely the English equivalent of "It was a dark and stormy night."

I just bought one. Time to get some fruit and some vodka.
Hurray for boobies!
