I know this is going to sound ridiculous, but I'm so embarrassed, so please don't laugh. Blush

My wonderful (strict Catholic) MIL gave me a food processor for Christmas. I was so excited, I love to cook and there are so many recipes I've been longing to try.

I've been making something every other day, practically, it's great. Anyway, 2 evenings ago I was making something and DH walked in and saw me using it. I was telling him how wonderful it was and took the bowl off to scrape my mixture of soup into bowls ready to eat. He took one look at it and came and put his arm round me and asked if I'd try something. Now, before you call troll, he has a thing about kitchen implements. Lets just say I never knew there were so many uses for rolling pins and spatulas before I met him. It doesn't really float my boat but I love him and it's not as bad a fetish as some things so I try and indulge him occasionally.

Anyway, he pointed out to me that the drive shaft on the processor was really strong and he'd love to see me ride it Blush Blush Blush. We have no dc's so have the house to ourselves and he was really keen so I did. It was very powerful! I was buzzing all evening. He loved it, says it was the sexiest thing ever (I had to keep my apron on). It was quite nice, I admit, although a bit too powerful, hence the buzzing.

Anyway, that's all fine but we went round to my PIL for supper last night and I took some of the leftover soup as we ran out the door (didn't really get round to eating much the night before), completely not thinking. I presented it to MIL and was gushing about the processor, when some very vivid memories from the night before popped into my head. My DH, who loves to wind people up said to his mother 'oh yes, the vibrations are very powerful.' I have never gone more red in my life. She made a catbum mouth and didn't say anything, but what if she guessed?! I'm so mortified.

Do you think I should refuse to use it again in that manner? It will disappoint DH dreadfully, but if he's going to crack jokes about it I'm going to be stubborn.

I know this all seems ridiculous, but I just know I'm going to go red every time I see my MIL now, and I've always wanted to make a good impression with her seeing as she's got such strict morals.

I thought we had a kitchen utensil thread before [been here too long]

BitOfFun · 19/01/2011 21:00

I think there is a whole support thread somewhere in Off The Whisked Track.

LittleWhiteSnowWolf · 19/01/2011 21:00

Thats just hilarious.

Blatherskite · 19/01/2011 21:01

You're going to have to tell us what make it is. I've been looking suspiciously at my KitchenAid but I can't work it out Confused

I don't care if this isn't true- bloody hillarious all the same!! I was laughing my head off!!

Host Grin

Queen, my processor is obviously different to yours - the 'shaft' sits inside the bowl. I wasn't suggesting that you'd managed to envelop the whole bowl, though. Just that your legs must bend at some fantastic angles.

Deciduousblonde · 19/01/2011 21:02

No wonder you are Queenofthekitchen.

Bloody marvellous. I thought it was bad enough that my DH broke the handle on the spatula Grin

SoupDragon · 19/01/2011 21:02

I've had a few food processors [snurk] and none have worked without the nobbly bit on the lid clicking into the slot body of the processor.

Shame really herbie. Kenwood lends itself rather readily to the topic at hand. They could bring out the Ken Wood Pleasure Master 3000.

I might even start cooking.

Figgyrolls · 19/01/2011 21:06

I think I might have just wee'd my pants a bit, brilliant.

Mistymoo · 19/01/2011 21:07

Soupdragon that's exactly what I thought

Queenofthekitchen · 19/01/2011 21:07

I'm not telling you the make. I don't like corporations as it is and I'd hate to think my pleasure led to a rise in sales in any particular company.

Ooh I could get a job as a tester couldn't I? I could be facing redundancy and I was thinking about a career change.

Respect, I am very bendy. Grin

BUT HOW????? I'm due a new food processor and my vibrator died at the weekend (parting was such sweet sorrow!) so maybe I could just combine the purchase?!!

Sadly mine does not look nearly robust enough!

Deciduousblonde · 19/01/2011 21:11

DH has just got our ancient 'Rotel' food mixer out.

After blowing the dust off (I haven't used it for years) he is desperate to see if it works.

I dunno why, but his eyes lit up...

BurnAfterReading · 19/01/2011 21:13

I can see the jeremy kyle headline....my wife is having an affair with the food processor...

was it the best ride of your life? i want to know how the hell do you get to the point of fucking your kitchen utensils...

would you do it again?

are you for real?

My food processor is clearly not as sophisticated as yours.

Rolling pins Shock.

Lol.

Am off to sit on the Dyson.

Deciduousblonde · 19/01/2011 21:18

Beer..we just plugged it in...it doesn't work and looks rather grubby.

So really it's more like a guest on the Jeremy Kyle show. I won't touch it with a bargepole.

MissQue · 19/01/2011 21:24

I wouldn't recommend using the whipping attachments Wink
