My 40 Sen La Gourmet Blender

Well. I have bought a Christmas present for me and now I shall buy a birthday present for me heh...heh...


I had been eyeing this cute blender (available in 6 colors) for a while. 


There is also a pink one. Green or pink? My favorite color is green, so.


Every time I walk past the La Gourmet shop at The Starling, I stop to gaze lovingly at the blender (and other stuff, my eyes are naughty).


There is also an air fryer with a glass basket and I may consider it when my current air fryer konks off. 

One fine day, I walked into the shop to take a look at the blender. 


When I made up my mind, I had my Maybank Treatpoints checked. And guess what? After conversion, my points totaled RM138.60 and I had to only pay a balance of RM0.40. Woohoo!

So I happily paid 40 sen for the blender.


At home, I unboxed my gift.


I bought this blender not to make juice but for making butter coffee. Or maybe a kefir/yogurt smoothie.


I like the glass mug but not the plastic tumbler. 


The sales assistant advised me not to blend ice since this is not a high powered blender.


There is also a plastic cover for the mug. Now I have to buy Kopi O powder to make coffee. I don't want to use those coffee sachets to avoid microplastics.


Come the weekend, butter coffee!


Nyums! The butter kept me full until afternoon when I had my first and only meal for the day.

  5. Hee hee, no need to wait for Christmas or birthdays to buy ourselves a gift, everyday is a gift day if we feel like it. Remember? Self love. But am glad your blender looks so pretty and is such a good deal. Good that you had thought of what to make with the blender. I have no favourite colour, every colour is pretty in their own way. And I seldom do work for my food cos (1) I have no time (2) I find it "leh chey" lol ! Ahhh, butter coffee got me very curious, sounds tasty but is it very oily?

    1. hah...hah... yes, as long as budget allows and also need to think if the gift will be put to good use and not used just once and then will collect dust. True also that cooking can be "leh chey" but it also depends on our mood.
