“Made a HUGE vat of vegan leek soup today. It came out nearly perfect. Gotta get a hand mixer. Mashing it just doesn't get it smooth enough.”

Here's your second vote for an immersion blender. We're on our second cheap one in 8 years or so. We use it all the time. - Heather Solos
I've wanted a stick blender for *years*. The soup sounds great, btw... - Bran Mydwynter
I love my immersion blender. For soup it's so much easier than a food processor or blender. - lisa-k
Really simple recipe. One onion, a bunch of leeks, vegetable soup broth as a base, and about 5 lbs of white potatoes (peeled). Leeks and onion in the pot with some olive oil. Cook that a few minutes, add the broth, then the taters. Cook it until the taters get mushy, smash em, and serve! - Nine
I'll eat it vegan or original. For really white soup use chicken broth and when you add the merest touch of milk at the end it gets magically white. The Irish Pub we frequent tops it with a bit of shredded Irish cheddar. - m9m
What is a "vegan leek"? Are there carnivorous leeks out there? - Glen Campbell
Carnivore leeks are a little-known scourge of the plant world. They defend the other leeks against picking and leave a really nasty wound when they get their teeth in you. Carnivore Leek Soup is a real delicacy. - Nine

I do. - Michelle Martinez
Absolutely! - joshua m. neff
Yes. I still use libraries. - possible248
all the time - RAPatton
lincoln center has the most amazing music/dance library. i totally nerd out there. not often, but when i do, it's on! - Melissa Maskevich
Good question...I haven't been recently, but with recent economic downturn, I bet libraries start to get a lot more activity. Who doesn't want free resources like books, music, movies, etc? - Pete Delucchi
Studies show that libraries do get busier in hard economic times. Not just because of the free stuff, but people also need resources on finding jobs, managing finances, etc. - Jill, Superhero Librarian
yes - Chris W
Yes. That way I don't have to figure out how to pass the book along (or whether I should) when I'm done. - Jeanine Walters via Alert Thingy
Aw, this thread warmed my little public librarian's heart. :) - Cecily
heck yeah! - lisa-k
I couldn't even tell you where my local library was :-) - Duncan Riley
Yes. Beside books - especially for my 5-yo - it has a reasonable selection of music CDs. I use this to try out music that I wouldn't buy straight away. - Warren Butler
My library has a barrel for disposing of old batteries. - Michael Markman
Haven't used one since I got out of college. There are very few good libraries in India. The British Library in Pune is the best there and that sucks bigtime. On a completely different note, I like keeping books - irrespective of whether I liked or disliked them; if I read it, I should keep it. But yes, I would like to *have* a library, by the time I am 50. - Parth Awasthi
I use libraries quite often. Best place for research ever is a library with a quite room and a high speed internet connection. Every type or reference you could ever want right at your fingertips. - Aaron "Dangitsauce" Krug
Absolutely. I just got home from the library, in fact. - Wendy
It's great for the public wifi and general hanging out. For research, not so much. - Sid Yadav
Sid, it depends on what you're researching and whether you're in a large city. However, whatever you can't find in your own library can usually be borrowed from another library thanks to the magic of a little thing called "interlibrary loans". And don't forget - librarians are there to help you with research. We don't just keep people from talking loud. :) - Cecily
Yes. - Nine
My local library allows you to "borrow" digital copies of books. They also have the cheapest DVD rentals in town ($1/ 3 days) And libraries are still the best and cheapest way to get a hold of a copy of an older, out of print, and hard to find book. - April Russo
yes - Arash
Yes. We do and a new study (look in my feed, it's there somewhere) shows that library usage is up and something like 83% of Americans have a library card. - AJ Kohn
yes, from time to time I do. Since I started at the age of 4, I've always read a lot. - Ian May
Absolutely not. - MiɳiMagɘ (Sexy Scimitar)
No need.:) - Igor Poltavskiy
Yes indeed. If I see a new book I like, I check it out. If I like it, I return the library book and buy the book from B & N. That way I can read it at my own pace. - Jimmy Walker
no. The classics are available for free, I can gets technical stuff off ebookshare.net and get my fiction from Amazon - Ernie Oporto
Oh yes, are you mad? The library rocks! - Bwana
no, haven't been to any library for 8 years at least - Kirill Bolgarov
Always. Can't afford to buy all the books my family wants to read. - Carleen

i love morningstar. were i to go veggie, i'd buy even more of their stuff than i do now. - Secret Squirrel
I'm having a hard time finding Morningstar around here. Might have to try our local coop. I plan to start shopping there more often anyway. - Jill, Superhero Librarian
Good luck. My wife is a Vegetarian. She can make a Veggie meal at any restaurant. Most places will replace the burger with a veggie burger if asked. Good luck on the move. I don't think I could give up meat myself. - Chris W
JMS -- I missed this post -- how is it going? I've been veg since '89, so feel free to ask if you want any advice or support or whatever. (and Morningstar is likely not to be at Coop, it's a Kraft brand, but it is in weird place sin supermarket. Check by their breakfast foods) - RudĩϐЯaЯïaȵ
I'm doing pretty good. I've found the Morningstar stuff. Here it's in produce for the refrigerated stuff. I found a great cookbook that will be going on my Christmas list. And I'll probably be asking questions though. Thanks so much Rudibrarian. It's amazing how much better I feel since cutting out the meat. - Jill, Superhero Librarian
My wife does really well at restaurants. She just asks for the meat on the side and then gives it to me. ;) - Chris W

"The Head Kenzan is a delightful scalp massager with a unique Japanese twist. The brush structure is inspired by “kenzan,” a traditional tool used in Japanese flower arranging to hold the flowers in place. With 92 bristles that hit upon that perfect balance of not-too-hard and not-too-soft, the flexible Head Kenzan molds itself to your head. Simply use the handles on either side to run the brush back and forth, massaging and energizing your scalp." $47.00 - Cee Bee via Bookmarklet
