So do I go to the trouble to get this thing fixed? Do I go to the trouble to get another one? Suddenly this sometimes-used appliance seems essential. What if I need to make a cream-of-something soup?? Or emulsify a hollandaise sauce? Or blend a margarita, for the love of all that is good!!

How Julius killed my KitchenAid
I thought an Orange Julius sounded like a delightful afternoon treat for Lucy and me (and, well, Soren too, come to think of it.). But apparently this blender is NOT Ultrapowerful, as stated on the unit. One ice cube killed it. ONE. My brother says it serves me right, as orange juliuses (is that how you pluralize that?) are foul. But he has opinions about food, and has ever since his body was powered exclusively by yogurt.

New kitchen appliances - OOO!!!! Funny what gets me all worked up, HAHA!
Well, it depends on what's broken. Did it kill the motor? Did it jack up the blades? I have an Osterizer which I love, and the movers cracked the plastic pitcher, so I just ordered a new part for $10 rather than buying a new blender for $30, so now I have an extra blade and lid, which is nice actually. If it's the motor, then you probably need a new one! Oster brand are great, fyi.
I confess, I was once solely powered by yogurt. When I was three.
But now I have to go back and reread my chat log to see if I really said it serves you right. But it really does. :)
