Farewell, Old Friend

I was nearly finished making a batch of peanut butter rice crispy squares. Carefully, I poured the cereal into the gooey peanut butter. I grabbed my spatula and quickly stirred the hot mixture.

Disaster struck.

My spatula. My favourite silicon spatula. Broke. Snapped right in half.

I nearly cried. I love that spatula and use it practically every day. I feel as though I've lost my culinary left arm.

Ah well. My birthday is coming up next week. And nothing says "I love you" like a spatula ... especially a fancy new silicon one. ;-)
