Salad Spinner!

Ever since we have been married, which will be seven years on Tuesday, I have used my washing machine as my salad spinner. My friends all think I am crazy when they see me do this, but this is what my mother always did to spin out all the water after rinsing the head of lettuce.....and I must say it works very well. My lettuce always stays more fresh when I get ALL the water out after rinsing. To my recollection in all my years doing this, this is the first time this has happened. I do remember catching it as the drum was filling up with water one time from the extra rinse button being left on, which is how this mess happened!

Let's just say this is some clean shredded lettuce!

Oh, my!! I have NEVER heard of using your washing machine as a salad spinnner. ;)

I did not mean for that to sound rude. It was just very unexpected. I've always wanted a salad spinner and Jonathan thinks that's ridiculous. Now I have an alternative. ;)

That is awesome! I hardly use my salad spinner, I might use my machine more. But maybe in another phase of my life, too many things get soaked in there right now, if you know what I mean!
