I be chillin'

21 years ago

Well, I would be chillin' if I could find a decent ice crusha at a reasonable price. I grew up in a household with a Daisy ice crusha mounted on a door frame. Good, heavy seemingly cast iron works and receptacle; did a great job. Probably cost less than $5 in the 1960s. Alas, can't seem to find one today. Similar items are made by Metrokane today, but they are either flimsy (the $20 one at Target) or overpriced ($50 or more from Amazon). I was a crushin' ice in my Cuisinart tonight to make some Zombies for my homeys but that seemed so ghetto, plus I hear it's not the best thing for a food processor. (The ice was nicely crushed but there were still some chunkies in it). Any suggestions? Has anyone seen a Daisy in a month of Sundays? Thanks.

Wow, Claire, that is exactly the crusha I was looking for. I feel like such an idiot spelling a word "Daisy."

Alas, last night while we were serving drinks, I was ready to crush some more ice in the food processor, when one of my friends simply moved a lever on the icemaker dispenser, and voila, crushed ice. I was just as happy as if I had any sense.
