So, food has been on my mind lately and while I haven’t been shopping for things that aren’t necessities recently (for obvious reasons) as I look through all of these recipes I do begin to want some appliances that I don’t have.

Can you believe this is simply made out of bananas? I can't...

For example, I ran across this “recipe” today. Basically, if you blend a frozen banana you get the consistency of ice cream. No need for milk, no need for sugar, no need for anything else.

Oh, yeah. Except a blender.

I’m really wishing I’d bought one last fall when I saw it at Aldi’s. I really shouldn’t buy one right now. Still, I went over to the Aldi’s website to check out what the specials were for this week and I found this: a $24 Panini Maker/Grill. Now, a couple months ago, this would be entirely superfluous as I was making panini sandwiches with my mini-George Foreman Grill, but like my rice steamer, my George Foreman Grill no longer works (of course, the rice steamer never worked, but that’s neither here, nor there).

So, this is me convincing myself not to buy this because, honestly, I don’t need it.

Sorry about the materialistic digression. Hope you enjoy the banana ice cream recipe! Next time I’m near any of you and a blender, we should totally make some :)
