I’m sorry. I just can’t do it anymore. I just can’t. I just…
I can’t keep grating all the cheese I use by hand.
*sniff*
I’m sorry if I’ve disappointed you.
I know you think it’s best if I grate my own cheese. I know you say my food will taste better and my life will be lovelier if I grate all my own cheese.
I want to do what you think is right. I believe what you say on television and in your cookbooks and on your blog.
But I’m tired. So tired.
*sniff*
Not to make excuses for myself, but I do have three little kids. And I hate washing dishes. And sometimes I cook meals for big bunches of people. And sometimes I scrape my knuckles on the grater and bleed all over everything!
You don’t want that for me, do you?
I know you don’t understand, but… store-bought shredded cheese is just so… well, it’s so darn convenient. I know it doesn’t melt as smoothly or taste quite right, but I don’t always care about those things.
Whew. I wanted to be totally honest with you, and I hope we can still be best friends.
I just wanted to tell you the truth.
Love,
Your biggest fan (and hopefully your best friend still)

Tami,
I was frustrated as well and then Tupperware came out with a hand cranked shredder. I love it. No more bleeding fingers or shredded appendages lol. It’s amazing. Check it out. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tEKuRrYbC6M Let me know if you are interested and I can order you one. 🙂

Hi Christina, sorry it’s taken me so long to wade through my emails here — I WOULD like to order one! Let me know if you receive this and how I should order — I’m never sure if my replies go back to people.
