This enables you to have creamy smooth velouté style soups without the inherent dangers of pouring hot liquids into a blender. I'm not usually one for kitchen gadgets but the hand blender is really useful for lots of things beyond soup (salad dressing, crushed ice drinks, pureed vegetables, etc.) WRT the soup, I highly recommend spending some money (!) on a hand blender.

I consulted my doctor after taking a number of tumbles while running, and was told I have loose ankles and could just wrap them. Haven't fallen down since. Now I just have stretchy supports to pull over them. Seem to work great. Maybe we can run next week too :) Yay for running!

When I was little, we would drive out to Col. Green's place and drive around, and I would stare at the (now, very sadly gone) radio dish and wonder if aliens were talking to it. I hope they were. Another thing we have in common - loose ankles. The bane of my athletic existence. I have finally found a good brace that I wear to volleyball, should you decide you want/need one. AND I just spent an ungodly amount of money on a new, very snazzy pair of boots. I almost took them back I felt so guilty, but instead have worn them every single day, thereby easing the guilt. Soup rocks! Here's to a happy 2010! Hetty Green fascinated me as a child, and is one of my mother’s favorite local historical figures. When I was little, we would drive out to Col.
