The price of admission for Thanksgiving dinner this year: 2 pies.
All they need now will be a garnish of, oh, I don't know--bacon chocolate?
2. Laundry
Bike commuting exacerbates my lack of cycling kit--I don't have enough jerseys and shorts to get from one laundry day to the next without rewearing something. To avoid utter nastiness, I've been handwashing them. Problem is, without a dryer, I could only get so much water out by wringing, and it took forever for them to dry, risking moldiness--until I started using the salad spinner.
A few spins and the jerseys and shorts come out drier than I could ever get 'em just by squeezing. Now, some would suggest that it's easier to wrap the clothes in a towel, but (a) the spinner works just as well if not better and (b) it doesn't create a wet towel which will get moldy. I'm also sure that no one who reads this will ask me to make a salad.
Happy American Turkey Day!

hmm, that's pretty creative. jerseys in a salad spinner...
i'm sure my shorts wouldn't fit in my salad spinner
yours looks like a pretry pro spinner!
Pecan and strawberry rhubarb?
lauren: necessity breeds creativity. or something.
xb: it's a pretty sweet spinner for laundry, maybe engineering overkill for leafy greens.
dp: pecan (my first, and I avoided the use of corn syrup) and plain old apple. Though you've got me thinking now...if I can find rhubarb...
oh, man.
that's brilliant.
nice one.
