Nifty tool djinni, how do you get the pineapple out of it's skin and still keep it looking so neat ???  I hate peeling pineapples, this looks like the solution.

Do you like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain? If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain.

Excellent. Cocktails this weekend.  Not a big fan of the cocktail - so much fruit and paper umbrellas taking up the space where my alcohol should be.  ;D

It's very easy to use. The only thing is to do the whole process over a plate so you can drink the juice.

My vanilla pods are just about to take a swim as soon as I find the instructions for vanilla essence :) Thanks Uni :) :) :). Still deciding what to do with the vanilla sugar...

Lol mcmich. Also have to mention those nuts. Beautiful mcmich.  Only complaint is that my jar is nearly empty despite careful rationing :)

JD the gizmo does it all. I can't do the link from my iPad. I still have l plates for this thing. But I will when I get back to my pc :)

Here is the link, with video  8)

Evening Goldfish, if you are talking about the pineapple corer/slicer, it came from Home Depot at Castle Hill. If you cannot get to Castle Hill, they have a large online shop. The link is http://www.yourhomedepot.com.au/categories/fruit-amp-vegetable-tools/cooking/?p=3&s=0&o=a&lvl0=cooking&lvl1=fruit-amp-vegetable-tools.

They are good fun.

I just saw an ad for the whisky stones. Do they stay cold by themselves or do they go in the fridge? I like the idea of them.

Thanks. I think I might get some as I have just bought a 2.3 litre insulated jug that I plan to use for water during the warmer weather. I know I will have to fill it all the time, but then it was me that filled the water chiller before it died.
