veggie peelers by summerfield

veggie peelers

how many vegetable peelers can one household have? i have five - these three and two more with brush attachments. heaven knows if i would find more when i open the other drawers. i'm pretty sure there are others lurking somewhere! :-)

and this shot was an accident. i was going for the back light or rim lighting effect but the darn peelers kept falling off. (where are those clay putties when you need them? i swear the dollar store's entire stock is in my household but i can't find any of them.) so i started to swear and huff and puff and pout and i was about to throw a really bad tantrum when i accidentally (i promise) kicked the lamps and they fell and in the process the camera, which was on self-timer, and just when i was straightening the lamps, it clicked. i gave up, but this shot turned out to be the best of the lot. kinda like rockets being launched, ain't it?

the top drawer in my kitchen is like a bag of magic tricks! gadgets galore that i accumulated when i first learned to cook in manila, then in europe and oman, and of course when i can't find anything, i just buy more. i'm going to hell for three of the seven deadly sins - lust (for gadgets!), greed (for more gadgets!) and gluttony for even more gadgets! i should start atoning by having some ice cream. heck, where's my ice cream scooper? :-)

thank you, kind folks, for your visits and comments; they are so much appreciated!
Wow! You have made these peters look magical! They are absolutely a work of art! I love the lighting that you have achieved!

LOL! I decided to leave the talk to text error in place! It makes for a much more interesting comment! Ha ha ha!

Having a spare is an excellent thing. Five might be going overboard just a bit. Does the brush attachment augment the peeling, or an alternate option to peeling? I've never seen one (but then I'm a pretty provincial hick - lots I've never seen.) :-)

Hilarious, love the narrative and the shot. I saw rockets before I read the narrative!

Vickie, this made my day! I thought rockets of course as soon as I saw the picture. I'm joining you in hell and if we haven't met for a party before then we will throw a huge one, my books, your Gage's and a hundred million photographs.

It looks like they are being followed by the paparazzi and are definitely the "Stars" at the veggie peeling show. Loved reading your story. :D

Launching peelers! What is happening to our world...... Love those flashes. I have only one peeler and the thought of it failing worries me as then I will have to replace it.

@grammyn Haha! I almost thought I learned a new word today!

love this shot. Wish this stuff happened on purpose sometimes, but hey, we take what we get!

I will only admit to two peelers (peters?) and in your defense, Vicki, they do sometimes slide to the back of the drawer and hide there.... Sometimes for years!

@grammyn - see what you've done? imagine dianna going around calling her peelers peters if you didn't put in your correction. who knows, we could've made the oxford dictionary! hahahaha! @dmcoile

They look very Hollywood ;p

@summerfield LOL! Blame it all on technology! As far as I'm concerned we can start calling them that and make a new word! I'm certain there are people that would be offended though! @dmcoile
November 26th, 2015  
@grammyn I am NOT offended! :-D
