ShungHO 1PC Pliers Scissor Metal Melon Seeds Sunflower Seed Nut Cracker Sheller Silver

ShungHO 1PC Pliers Scissor Metal Melon Seeds Sunflower Seed Nut Cracker Sheller Silver

**




I bought these because I eat a lot of pistachio's and thought this would be a nifty little item to crack open those shells that aren't cracked open enough to get with my fingers.  

After all the product description says:
  • Very useful and effortless.
  • Sizes little nuts and seeds.
  • Protects the whole fresh Nut.
  • Easily and quickly cracks various kinds
  • Easy to cracks all kinds of nut-shells and seafood. Walnuts, pecans, hazelnuts, almonds, Lobster,
Wrong.  Totally didn't work for getting those babies open.  I had to revert back to a regular nut cracker.  It's been several weeks since I tried the "scissors" so I can't remember if my pistachio's were too big or too small.  I just know the scissors did not work.  If I ever get sunflower seeds I will give it another try.  But for now these are going into the drawer where all the other somewhat useless gadgets go.

Vintage Floral Recipe Cards


Vintage Floral Recipe Cards

What cook doesn't have a stash of recipe cards.  I was drawn to these cards because of the floral design on them.  There are 50 cards to a pack.  They are 4x6 and on heavy card stock paper.  There is lots of room to write ingredients and both sides of the card are lined. 


Due to the size they don't fit into a 3x5 index card box.  I'm sure there are probably larger card boxes but I chose to store mine in a photo book which was small but large enough to hold the card.

I came across this little gem while browsing Amazon and thought I would buy it.  The description states that it is 925 Sterling Silver.  It feels very heavy and looks like a school of fish swimming on your finger.  It also states the ring is adjustable but I wear a size 8 and this looks to be about a size 5.  I don't want to stretch the ring out 3 sizes so I will pass this onto to someone else.  Overall I think this would make a cute little ring for a young girl.
