Pat are you coming back this way for thanksgiving again. If so plan on a night at our house. We have a working stove so we can actually fix breakfast this time. (although we cant make waffles and bacon etc for everyone at the same time like you can ) I promise you a ride in the porsche this time if you can get a chance to stop and visit. |
Thomas, if I buy any more pipe wrenches they will be the lightweight alloy handle type and now that I have been appraised of the HF functionality by user report(s) I will almost guarantee I will get HF. Even the little Rigid wrenches12-18 inch), when used in hard to access locations, seem to get heavy rather quickly, especially when working up over your head.
We just took a first come first served approach to Thanksgiving and accepted the first offer. Turns out we will be having Thanksgiving with a couple who live across the highway and down a bit from us. Their house is across the highway from our newest pond. We used to have a houseful nearly every year but since moving seems than most of our friends either are away for Thanksgiving or have family coming to their house.
Thanks so much for the offer but we wont be on our way through Arkansas this time.
Now to the topic (sort of) I bought a couple of the hamburger patty molds from HF (plastic) and they seem to work really well for Nancy. I also bought one of the French Fry slicers (mostly metal, some plastic) and it worked so so (6-7 on a scale of 10) when new but rapidly deteriorated to a 5 at most. Silly me, I was expecting it to be as robust as the one my parents had when I was a kid but it IS NOT even close. (Pardon me but I am too lazy to make a second post in HF stuff that sucks thread regarding the French Fry slicer.
