Since the dogs are on raw, i have been buying meat in bulk from wholesalers. Some of the meat comes in slabs and is a chore to slice. So..TADAH! I bought myself an electric knife! I never knew there was such a device till i was flipping through one of my mother’s magazines and read their feature on kitchen equipment. Its a godsend in some ways! LOL. It does speedup the process significantly but heats up rather quickly as well. After the 3rd slab, it needs a break. When you have about 15 slabs…this poses an issue! Regardless, it works better than a meat slicer!
I also got a yogurt machine for the dogs. Been buying commercial yogurt for too long, and my mum feels it is more economical as well as healthier to make my own. Still have not tried it out yet, but am sure the dogs will enjoy it.
We ALSO bought some new pot device. I was reluctant to buy it because i am hardly in the kitchen, but the minute i saw its thawing effect, i was sold! When the saleslady heard my mum comment that we were buying it because of the dogs, i think she gave me the evil look. As if i was an unfilial daughter cos everything i bought that day was meant for the dogs. *gulp*
Anyway, whatever invention that makes work in the kitchen easier is great! I am the type of person that can’t even use a can opener properly. We had to get an electric can opener because i can’t figure out how to use the manual ones after the old one got spoilt. I was so surprised that there are even things such as electric sifters! Amazing! I think the saleslady saw me as a country bumpkin -_-”
Are there any other devices i should get i don’t know of? I hope not!!!

Cool electric knife! Maybe i should invest in one next time! Does it look like a mini chain saw? hahaha

It does! LOL. I actually got inspired to get something like that when i watched an episode of Dirty Jobs and saw them use a mounted jigsaw saw to slice frozen meat. Super convenient! Just looks very dangerous as well!
