Great tongue in cheek article. Hilarious. This one was worthy of reading out loud, I thought. One, because I'd considered buying the Tefal mini food processor, but now you've shown me it only processed enough food for ONE of the seven dwarves, well, I'll give that one a miss, eh! The epilator, well, funny story about that one - my daughter bought a couple - good lurk that one, you need a different one for every area of your body!!! My daughter likes it fine; but not sure yet whether I'm up for forking out for another two (at least) for upcoming daughter who will also need the bloody lawnmowers, soon! Juicer - we get heaps of use out of - in the season. Need I go on: there's the ice cream maker (we were going to make all sorts of gourmet icecreams, thereby saving ourselves a fortune!) the poffertjes maker (mini pancakes) - once so far. But I agree, the pizza stone or pizza oven often gets used on a weekly basis. In the end, you can generally find your way around alot of what these inventions do, and they actually claim you can't do without them. You can. Simple. They're just so new and SHINY!
