A few years ago, I tasted delicious mock chop liver at a friend’s house. I enjoyed it so much, I asked for the recipe and rushed out to buy a small food processor for $40. I immediately made my own and ate it all up. However, a long time passed before I again made another batch. But when I fried the onions, boiled the eggs, poured all the ingredients in the processor, and then turned on the machine, nothing happened. To fix the problem, I tried twisting the cover tighter and tighter. Still, the motor wouldn’t start.
Obviously, the food processor was broken. But I had to take the mock chop liver to a party that night, so I went to the store to buy a new one. Luckily, I had seen a recent Walgreen’s advertisement for a larger processor priced at only $15. I quickly bought it, carried it home, and made sure the cover was tightly secured in order to finish making my hor dourve.
Unfortunately, I could not return my other food processor as it was out of warranty. But a few days after buying my new machine, I made an important discovery. It dawned on me that I had concentrated so hard on tightening the cover of my first processor, it never occurred to me to check the base. Surely that was my mistake. It probably had to be tightened as well. And so when I once again assembled my original machine correctly, it worked !!!
Now what would I do with two food processors. I offered it to my daughter, but she didn’t need it. So I put it on my top shelf and forgot about it until recently when I had a craving for humus. I bought a can of garbanzo beans, plugged in my Walgreen’s food processor, and then realized it was too big for just one can of beans. At that moment, I knew immediately what I would do with my two appliances – the big one for mock chop liver and the small one for humus.
