I can’t take credit for this, because I found the idea on the internet, but did you know that most canning jars (or similar-sized jars) will fit your blender? Tonight I tried to make a freezee-coffee drink (which turned out wrong….but was still delicious), and used a little jar that held….. I don’t remember. I think it will fit the jars that my spaghetti sauce comes in, too. This will satisfy my craving for that blender thing on t.v. – the one where it has the ‘comfort rings so you can drink right from the jar!’. It’s such a stupid commercial, but I get sucked into watching it every time.
This is our old blender that I bough eleven years ago at a thrift store for seven dollars. I love it, even though it’s ugly. We actually received a nice new blender for Christmas last year, but I can’t bring myself to use it yet. It would seem like such a betrayal to this little guy.
