Blog2025 ≫ Ninja GO

Used the Ninja again today for lunch, one of the bin pasties from the weekend. One of the pasties that I got for free in the last hour of trading from Tesco. I didn't really get it out of the bin. I remember when I first got the Ninja I posted every time I used it, and for a while I tried to keep track of number of uses and so I could work out what it was costing me. But I just use it too much! I'm still using it all the time, it has been a GREAT investment. Yesterday I made a bolognaise for tea in it, and made twice as much as we need so there's some in the freezer. Monday I made the arrabiata sauce in it, and Sunday I did two lots of mash and the filling for three (vegan of course) shepherds pies, two of which have also gone in the freezer.

It is probably on a level with my coffee machine for just what a good purchase it was. I am notorious for making very bad purchases, but neither of these are that.

Guessing 2718 cups of coffee ☕️ from my espresso machine 1 prob'ly comes to £0.90 a cup (including 3+ years of coffee beans and now servicing 1 but not the electricity).

I think I'll have another cup before work.

Those test tube coffee cups I bought are another raging success. Maybe I've become a better shopper.

Thundery showers and a fresh breeze, 11 - 17℃.
