    Heres one, RECYCLE all the old hand use kitchen utensils.

    I am going to pick up one of those hand held, hand cranked blenders. I figure I can get one cheap now before they become scarce. And also the hand cranked butter and cream separators. Cheap investment that might make things a little easier just in case. ;)
