When I started to live alone, I haved to prepare my own food, it was so difficult, because I don't haved time. So my parents decided to give me my first one. It's amazing because you only have to put the food, and the machine make the rest. you only have to turn the knob and cover the top.I use it every day in the mornings. I like it because you can do so many combination, put vegetables, fruits or another. I love put ice, sugar and coffe when I have heat, or put cooked vegetables when I have cold, the creams are my specialty. How you can see, the machine is so important to me, because i eat very good and remember me my parents. I hope learn to much recipes, and if you wanna i can give you one.
