When buying things on flea market, the most funny thing is that every seller claims his merchandise is the best, never used and practically new.

Well, this blender should be all that when I bought it! I was thrilled and in my head I already saw pancakes and muffins or something sweet and delicious prepared by stirring. But at home I lost a fraction of initial enthusiasm because stirring with this hand blender wasn't easy at all. I was stirring and stirring and stirring and slowly my hands became numb. Sadly the dough still wasn't as smooth as it should be. It took me forever to bring it to perfection. Now I really appreciate strong last-century housewives. And yeah, god bless Tesla and those who came up with all modern electric devices!
