My dream has always been to own a deli meat slicer. Roast beef sliced so thin it looks like a wet glow on the plate.
^^ They are the best. We have a Kitchen Aid version too that is fancier, but doesn't work better.
Remember when everybody just had to have an electric can opener? Like, late '60s/early '70s?
If I'm typical, lots of people determined that when those Brave New Labor-Saving Devices weren't in use they were just in the way. And they were a PITA to clean. In other words, more trouble than they were worth.
It's different for the arthritic, of course. From my perspective, electric can openers are as much adaptive equipment as practical kitchen appliance.
The can opener reminded me of another 1960's/'70's thing, the electric knife. I only really remember them being used at holiday dinners, but it seemed like most people in my orbit had one. They were popular wedding gifts for a time, but I seriously doubt they show up on many bridal registries these days.
^ Is it just me, or does olive loaf look like something the CDC would issue a warning about?
That, I'd consider eating. Olive loaf, not a chance. Olives taste bad; macaroni and cheese tastes good.Olive loaf, phooey. For a new taste thrill, try Macaroni and Cheese Loaf.

One of my previous hobbies was to go on seasonal roads where we used to live. These are rarely maintained. One day I went on a road that hadn't been maintained in many many years, probably a decade. I'd come to a small pond in the road, stop, and take a stick and put it in the pond. If I hit hard bottom I'd continue. I got to about the 8th one a mile in and it was big. I stuck a 3 foot stick in and the pond literally sucked it up.The road maintenance standards of this county...
