I Bless this New Blender and All who Puree in Her...

First you cook the pumpkins... (with your home-made chicken stock from last night's roast chicken, oh you are such a Domestic Goddess this week.)

Make sure you wash the New Blender with warm soapy water etc. You could also pat dry with soft cloth. Or you could figure that the rinse was good enough. How holy does a Domestic Goddess have to be?

Pour the hot stuff into the New Blender. Experienced bloggers (like moi) will also remember to wipe up all the spillages before taking the photos.

If you attempt to read the instructions during your first use of the blender, you may will discover that switching the Power Button on means that when you press Button 4 (to puree) the New Blender will spring into action immediately. It will be just luck that at this stage you are right next to it, meaning you can slam your hand onto the lid before too much pumpkin puree flies into the atmosphere. At this point, make sure you wipe everything down again before proceeding with photography.

Serve with a dash of cream and fresh chives (from own herb garden if possible). Photograph lovingly, then eat! Multi-taskers may like to scoff it down whilst bragging about domestic achievements to cyber-space.
