So this post is about how NOT clever I can be. Should have bought stuff to save time and money a long time ago.
First the Food Processor
I have spent over 3 hours a week for the last year making a weeks worth of food. I eat roughly the same thing every day and don't generally mind that at all.
Most of my time is spent cutting the food in preparation to cook.
I bought the
BLACK & DECKER FP6010 Performance Dicing Food Processor.
I finished cooking all my meals in less time than it would have taken to dice my food without the machine. Less than an hour from send to end. A little longer to let it finish cooking in the oven (Time i don't generally include in my overall time.)
Second:
I Airdry 90% of my laundry. Well 90% of what covers my flesh is Air Dried. it is by item count 80% or space consumed about 95%.
It takes forever and often times the clothing
(Levi's) isn't
(aren't) dry for days.
I have wanted a spin dryer for a long time. SOoo I purchased one of these with a portion of the Tax Return.
The Laundry Alternative Mega Spin Dryer, Huge 22 Pound Capacity
1 load of laundry and close to 3/4 of a gallon of additional water came out of my load in 5 minutes and it was still coming out when I stopped the machine to hang the clothing.
My work shirts came out almost completely dry.
Like so many other things ordered long after they should have been. I am very pleased.
This should also use less power. The automatic setting on the dryer ran for less than 1/3 the usual time for my work clothing (amount of stuff doesn't change much at all).
Which means it saved about as much as switching the whole house to LED bulbs for a day (assuming you are like a mother I know and need to have 200watts of power to see the sun... at noon... on Mercury... during a Solar Flare.)
