It has only been two weeks, but I think I'm ready to announce that I am in love--with my salad spinner. I know, two weeks might seem a bit premature, but I've made enough salads in my life to know a quality gadget when I see it. The generously sized basket, the sturdy construction, its no-slip base. And oh, lest not I forget the ergonomic pump. This baby has more giddy-up than my boyfriend's GTI. My greens are squeaky clean, even fluffy. Sure, I've waxed poetic over other kitchen gadgets before. The bread machine. The rice steamer. The popcorn popper. The ice cream maker. I've long since given those space hogs away (well, not the ice cream maker). But this one's different. Salads have never tasted so good. Not to mention, perfectly dried greens don't require as much dressing. And did I mention just how much fun it is to get the greens spinning really, really, really fast?
