Throwback Thursdays - Can You Name This Kitchen Tool?
I visited one of my favorite antique stores the other day and caught a peek at a classic kitchen staple from yesteryear: the vintage manual ice crusher. Remember this?
This fun contraption is just like the one my parents & grandparents had - including the color - the silver top and bright red base. I literally stood in the store, holding the ice crusher, reminiscing of my childhood and making a refreshing icy drink - and I didn’t mind at all operating the ice crusher!
Before the convenience of modern electric appliances, this gadget was a must-have for cocktail parties and for hot summer days. The crunch of the ice and the coolness it brought to a fizzy homemade lemonade brings back wonderful childhood memories. What a cool piece of history that tells stories of past gatherings and the simple joys of life's little pleasures.
Happy Thursday!
