Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 04 Feb 05 - 04:40 PM "Spatulas are rubbish!" is what jOhn would say. Then he'd tell us a goofy story of how a few spatulas were stuck in the spokes of that stupid bike that was thrown into his yard as trash. |

Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 18 Feb 05 - 02:04 PM Lurel, I am in awe! That isn't just a spatula. That's a work of art. It is to ordinary spatulas as VanGogh's "Starry Night" is to kids' fingerpaintings. Congratulations. |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: GUEST,Jack Date: 10 Nov 05 - 11:11 PM I don't need no stinking spatula I have the perfect pancake maker. All these years of eating pancakes cooked on one side are over. |

Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Peace Date: 10 Nov 05 - 11:23 PM I just have one spatula. Here's why! |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: bobad Date: 10 Nov 05 - 11:28 PM Wow Peace You can really stir things up with that sucker. |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Peace Date: 10 Nov 05 - 11:38 PM It's a multi-purpose tool. Kinda 'Swiss Army Knife' of the spatula world. It can also be used as a dining table, boat, cricket wicket, direction sign (something like a "Pancakes 'r' Us" advertising sign), and in a pinch, a conversation piece. Helluva handy tool. |

Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Bard Judith Date: 11 Nov 05 - 12:22 AM How many, eh? One metal one (not-allowed-to-use-because-all-our-pans-are-teflonated) Two plastic ones - one large and wide and slotted... one small and solid and slightly scorched at the leading edge, giving it a space-shuttle-on-reentry sort of look. Waaaaaay too many of the cheap wooden Ikea kind that start looking downright fluffy around the edges after being repeatedly washed and scraped across burnt eggs and washed again... Does my chrome-plated pie lifter thingy count? It looks like a 'fish slice' and is spatulatesque... How about my putty knife which is currently on the kitchen windowsill, and (I confess) has been used in spatuloid maneuvers when all the other ones were dirty? And has anyone else ever used the lid of a CD case as a pancake flipper/egg easer/ meat turner? Or wrapped an old credit card in tin foil for the same purpose? 'Fess up, guys... |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: number 6 Date: 11 Nov 05 - 12:31 AM A cd case .... ?? Wouldn't there be an eau de plastique when flipping around the hot pan? sIx |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 11 Nov 05 - 02:33 AM I have some bad news, folks. One of the spatulas I had when I started this thread is no longer with us. Yes, it has gone to that great Waffle House in the sky where all good spatulas go when they've flipped their final hamburger patty. The poor thing got left a little too close to a stove burner and... well, does the term "amorphous blob of soot-tinged white plastic" mean anything to you? The spatula is sorely missed and any help you may feel inclined to offer to help get us through the grieving process would be appreciated. If you want to send some flowers, that'd be nice. Money would be better. If you don't have the cash, I take VISA, Mastercard and American Express. |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Kaleea Date: 11 Nov 05 - 02:55 AM I believe I recall seeing something akin that years ago--sort of like two small teflon skillets hinged together which cooked everything from crepes to grilled cheese sandwiches & burgers. Ever notice that it is impossibe to find a real rubber (not plastic) spatula these days? Not to mention a metal spatula--if the person at the store even knows what one is. It is easy, however, to find el cheapo pancake flipper devices, especially the kind that melt in the pan. |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: GUEST,Ingrid Frances Stark Date: 11 Nov 05 - 04:03 AM How many spatulae? Well, when Stephen Lee moved in with me we each had a full stock of kitchen accoutrements. I find at least 20 in the kitchen, but who knows how many may be hiding in as yet unpacked boxes somewhere in the basement? I think we fall well within the parameters of the spatula rich. Perhaps we could get together for a spatula swapping party, or establish a spatula bank for distribution of our excesses to those in need.... Ingrid |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 11 Nov 05 - 12:41 PM Many of the [sic] rubber scrapers are made of silicon these days. They don't melt like the rubber did. So far I haven't murdered any to report back on what does take them out. That turner-less pancake maker is just a cheap knockoff of a krumkake iron. You can make waffles with pancake batter on your krumkake iron, though I've never bothered to try it. I just make krumkake, and I use a pancake turner-type spatula to remove each cookie from the iron. SRS |

Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Rapparee Date: 11 Nov 05 - 10:03 PM I'm sorry, Bee-Dubya, for the loss of your beloved. After I read your post I felt I had to do something to mark the passing of your spatula, and this being Veterans' Day I couldn't think of anything more appropriate than a twenty-one gun salute. So I hauled out my Enfield, dug around until I found some bullets, and went outside to fire the salute. I also took my trumpet so that I could play "Taps." After nine or ten shots the cops showed up. I explained what I was doing, and they agreed that it was a fine and noble thing, so they joined in. I went inside and got some coffee and doughnuts, and by the time I come outside again the neighbors were helping as well. By and by someone opened a case of beer, another feller brought a grill over and pretty soon we were having one heckuva funeral salute for your beloved spatula. All in all, several thousand rounds were fired, if you include those by Crazy Eric, who brought his rabbit gun over. I didn't get to play "Taps," but a couple of guys with bagpipes did pipe "Johnny Cope," which everyone enjoyed a lot more. Things kinda broke up after a flight of Idaho Air Guard Warthogs fired their salute into the ground. We figured we couldn't top that, go we all did a hand salute and went on home. Those Warthogs sure did tear the golf course out back a new one, though. Lots more holes for the golfers to chose from now.... |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 11 Nov 05 - 10:13 PM I'm the current high bidder on a thunderbird at eBay, but it won't shoot holes in anything, including your golfcourse. I'll take a look and see if they sell spatulas next. |

Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Sorcha Date: 13 Jul 06 - 10:01 AM Space Walkers Lose Spatula!> |
Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Stilly River Sage Date: 13 Jul 06 - 10:05 AM There was only one thing missing from the spacewalk: Sellers' spatula. It flew overboard, off the right side of the shuttle's payload bay. "No sign of the spatula. I think it's gone, gone, gone," Sellers said of the kitchen appliance, 14 inches long and 2 inches wide. When Sellers was nearing the finish of his extended seven-hour, 11-minute spacewalk, mission control teased him by making him count his spatulas. He still had five left, from a total of 6. "Rub it in, rub it in," Sellers said. It is rare for spacewalkers to lose such a tool, but "it is no hazard to us," Gonzalez-Torres said. Nonetheless, military monitors of space debris were notified of the new hazard to track. Gonzalez-Torres praised the duo for using the goo to repair five of eight mock test sites. The other three were there in case they had extra time to work, but they were sent to their next task. I can see the art work now. . . |

Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Kaleea Date: 13 Jul 06 - 04:54 PM So, I'm wondering--just what does a spaceman's spatula look like? When they dropped it, did it make a sound? What does one say when one drops a spatula in outer space? "Whoopsie!" just doesn't seem to do it. |

Subject: RE: BS: How Many Spatulas Do YOU Own??? From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 13 Jul 06 - 10:24 PM Oh no! The poor spatula! Imagine how traumatized the remaining five spatulas in his collection are! I shall telephone my congressman and insist that NASA scrub the rest of the mission and mount a full-fledged rescue attempt! You know they'd try to recover it if it was something unimportant like a landing gear. |
