The poor thing has dreams of being a super fancy Elite Die-Cast 16 cup food processor, but it's just not big enough, nor is it strong enough, so every time it tries to grind or chop, I can smell its insides burning. I fear that my little guy just couldn't handle the Apple Almond Tart that I'm dying to make.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12747637021000545791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199782591407305748.post-22678595279599407122009-06-07T18:42:28.027-05:002009-06-07T18:42:28.027-05:00I would make a mixture of cilantro, garlic, lime, ...I would make a mixture of cilantro, garlic, lime, and olive oil to stir into rice to make cilantro lime rice! mmm.<br /><br />Thanks for the giveaway Amy :)<br /><br />-caitlin h.<br />caitlinhyla AT gmail DOT comapgovaliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03039045904562183577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199782591407305748.post-30141677917831342882009-06-07T12:08:13.506-05:002009-06-07T12:08:13.506-05:00I would use it to make French Pear Tart Dough, the...I would use it to make French Pear Tart Dough, the best dessert ever!Sabrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02121871412387502050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199782591407305748.post-69454651305775795112009-06-07T11:22:45.408-05:002009-06-07T11:22:45.408-05:00I so need this!
