Default PastaNMore

Yup. Just bought it.

here's what it looks like

http://pastanmore.com/

Don't know if any of you have seen the informercial (you can view it by clicking on the link).

First time I saw it I said "holy cow, I don't have to lug giant pots of water to the stove and then carry it over the sink to drain".

With my hands, this item is a godsend.

And it makes VEGGIES AND OTHER STUFF TOO!!!

And you KNOW I'll do an infomerical on this as soon as I use it, right?

So we shall see.

Just put the order in (got it on ebay and saved money too).

Cannot wait to get it.

Mel

I just watched the video on the site you provided Mel, and it sure looks good.

Let's hope that it turns out just like the ad.

I only hope it doesn't turn out like my Smart Lids did. God those things sucked big time. Got all my money back from the Rite Aid I bought it at.

But this does sound like a handy item to have when you need to make Pasta. Alan loves Pasta with Tuna Croquettes.

I DO NOT eat pasta. Maybe once in a while I'll buy the low-carb ones.

But if I don't have to carry a big pot of boiling water over to the stove, that's good enough for me.

And it comes with an expander, and a cheese grater (I'm a sucker for extra items when I buy these gadgets).

So I shall let you all know when I received this and try it out.

Can't wait.

Melody

looking forward to YOUR video Melody. Yours tell how it really works.

I am married to an italian who loves his pasta so this would really save some trouble. Plus it would be nice for traveling in our RV.

Let me know how it goes. Oh and you should have your own "as seen on TV webpage" I have watched all your gadget ones on youtube...Sue

Thanks Snoozie.

I have to ask you guys something. I was sitting with my neighborly friends (that's what i called friends that are also neighbors). Not around the corner but three blocks away. They used to live across the street from me but moved a few blocks away.

We were sitting out one night and my friend said "My daughter and I watched your silly videos. I mean, WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU DO A VIDEO ABOUT A STUPID JUICER, and she started laughing so hard, well I got embarassed. She then went on about my Pedegg and said "that was so silly, I said to myself "who cares about a stupid pedegg and a juicer", and her daughter screamed and said "wow, I actually know someone on youtube".

I tried to laugh along with her but honestly, I wasn't feeling like laughing. I just stared at her and said "why are you laughing, and she laughed even harder. She said "I just don't get it, why would you make an infomercial on these stupid products".

I then said "well, I have other friends who seem to enjoy it when I buy something and show them how it works or even IF IT WORKS".

They were laughing so hard I actually felt like a fool. These people DO NOT GO ON COMPUTERS. The only reason she saw me was I told her what to look for and she went on her daughter's laptop.

But the people who were sitting out on the stoop were not computer people, they don't go to forums, nor do they go to youtube. I got the feeling they thought I was absolutely ridiculous. I began to feel that way.

I didn't like the feeling.

I can get a joke like everybody else but that night I felt like I WAS THE JOKE!!!

Didn't like it one bit. I will never tell them if I do another video. It's not what they are into obviously.

But don't worry, I think this pasta n more thing is going to be a keeper.

Mel

Mel,

there will always be people laughing or picking on someone...

this is what I see in you(while I repeat moiself. LOL)

you have a Ponce de Leon Spirit....

You have a joyful and youthful spirit that shines in your posts. There is an innocence about you that a lot of people lose as they age.

and vive de coeur attitude...you have a lively heart attitude, a heart that will make you go on the streets and dance without care what anyone thinks...

that's just it, who CARES what they think? If you dance on the streets and it makes you feel alive, DO IT!

If they are laughing at you and teasing you, forget about them. They are not worth it. They are miserable people that rather laugh at other people cause that's HOW they live...you know what, grab their hands and make them dance with you, cause they are probably dead and miserable inside...

you keep doing what you are doing,Mel and no, not everyone will appreciate it, but don't worry about those folks...there WILL be people that WILL appreciate it. Embrace them and take them on the street to dance with you...

keep on smiling...and keep on dancing...

LOOK AT MY NEW SIGNATURE!!!!

And thanks to all for keeping my chin up!!!

I will continue to dance in the street (I've actually danced in produce stores when they played Belly Dance music and the staff were dancing with me up and down the aisles). The owner was smiling. These people know how to enjoy themselves.

Mel

I think the videos are cute and more importantly, you're having fun making them. You'd love the san diego fair. They had a whole building with all sorts of as seen on tv stuff. I just loved that building!!

I have to admit. My shark stinks. I tried using it on the wood floor and it was completely streaky. I use it on my tile floor in my kitchen but if there's anything actually stuck to the floor, it won't come up. Had some blood on the floor from the dog's tail and it wouldn't touch it. I think a regular mop is probably a better bet for me. Too bad because it seemed so cool. I bought it because everyone here seemed to love theirs.
