...for opening jars that is....
Tupperware - the very word makes some ladies go weak at the knees. They cackle in groups about 'doing their pantries over' in the stuff and marvel at the dohickeys and whatsits that this company makes. Lifetime guarantee - really is just that! BLah blah blah
Me - I am not really one to sing it's praises - mostly because I can go get something from the warewhare for 1/4 of the price (if that) and when it shits itself I can replace it just as easy...simple! Basically yeah - I'm a tight arse when it comes to plastic ware.
Those that know me know that I also HATE Tupperware parties. I can't stand the bollocky demonstration ladies - there is this one I have seen three times now and she gets right on my tits. She expects you to sit and listen silently to her LOOOOOONGG and well rehearsed speil and will twitter on all fricken night about how useful all the plastic gadgetry is and how she uses it to....whatever?!She is a regular Martha Stewart this woman and every time she sees me at one of her parties I just know she is thinking here we go again
. I really do go JUST for the food, wine, socialising with my friends and that's it! Keep your plastic doo dads to yourself woman!
ANYWAY - the last T Party I went to they played this game at the beginning and we ended up competing for tiny pieces of gadgetry - I have to admit that I couldn't give a toss about what I won UNTIL.......
I spied this square of orange plasticky kind of stuff. I was actually curious enough to ask and well that was it! I was suddenly engaged...I had to have this orange piece of plasticky thing!
SO what is it? It's called a need a man no more and it is used for opening jars and stuff. Even though I look tough I have a weak grip in my hands especially since hurting my thumb crashing at buckets. I find opening fresh jars of jam etc almost impossible.
WELL NOT ANY MORE!
It has been atleast 6 months since I had to get Sully to open something for me...I shit you not ladies!!! If you also struggle with this and are tired of having to put your pride aside by coming off all soft and pathetic needing hubby (or sons) to open jars and the like for you...get thee to a Tupperware lady NOW.
They can't cost much?! SURELY! I mean it's a piece of rubbery plasticky stuff - it has little teeth in it that help grip the surface of whatever you are working to open.
Anyway - I am hereby publicly admitting that I couldn't be without this particular little Tupperware do dad.
There! Trudes and Nasty - I said it![]()
