Excited!
In my house, my husband did all of the cooking for most of the last 20 years. When my kids were growing up, I did it. They’re in their 30s now and I’m 60 years old and he was 64. Not that it matters all that much. I’m just stating those facts to give you an idea of how much time over the years I’ve cooked.My husband passed away in March of this year. Had he lived? We would’ve been married 34 years December 28. He was a really good cook. When he first started taking over the cooking, he had his ups and downs, but it wasn’t long before he was turning out some great mealsUnlike me, he was patient, methodical and he enjoyed it. He knew how to season everything well. When my kids were growing up and I did the cooking I wasn’t so organized. I am very ADD. I watched my mom cook as I was growing up and she didn’t use a lot of seasoning but she always made everything turn out well I should’ve paid better attention than I did because I don’t know how to season anything and when I started to cook my food to always seemed a little on the bland side. That was because I had no idea how to season anything and.I rarely followed a recipe.Now when I cook and I follow a recipe i’m not very adventurous. I’m a little bit nervous about trying new things or not having exactly what the recipe calls for and making substitutions. My husband had no problem with any of that. Both when I cooked years ago and now I avoid anything that requires a lot of chopping, shredding grading, dicing mincing you name it. However, I am excited to have this thing because I think it will make those things way easier and greatly expand my repertoire of meals that I prepare myself. Thanks to you too and the Internet. I now know that my food was planned because I didn’t put anywhere near enough seasoning on anything. The most I ever put on anything was a light sprinkle.I haven’t used this yet, but I did open it up and look at it and all the pieces are there. It looks very simple and I’m looking forward to trying it now that my food taste better because I know more about how to season things I find that I enjoy cooking more Than I used to.. i’m still not the most organized or methodical, but I am better at those things than I used to be. I guess years of watching my husband rubbed off on me. I don’t expect any problems with this because everything was there and it looks simple like I said. After I play around with it if I Have anything else to add, I will come back and update this.Update: I finally used it and it worked wonderfully.. I made a big dish of macaroni and cheese. This Rotary Grater made everything so much easier and quicker.I felt like a real idiot, though when it came to putting it together. I understood everything. It’s fairly simple. I just didn’t catch onto one little fact. I couldn’t figure out how the blades went. The reason for that is because one set of blades was already on there ready to go and I thought they were just too built in blades and was trying to add two more, but there was no way to do so. I’m thankful I have a very smart son-in-law who doesn’t take long to figure things out unlike me. It’s a wonderful toll for some reason and I haven’t checked to see if it said that or not but I thought this thing came with three sets of blades. It comes with five.
