Presentation is everything
I don't make food with my washing machines.
Although I did have a friend whose mother used her mini-basket as a salad spinner. True story. As she arrived at the dinner table with the tossed salad she made the mistake of telling us, proudly, that she had just dried the romaine in the mini basket before we arrived. Being a closet appliance enthusiast I was delighted, and then, as I thought about it, skeeved, although I thought she was wonderfully clever if not a little daft for letting everybody know. Didn't really think it was appropriate to ask if she used a lot of Clorox in her laundry.
The salad course just wasn't popular that evening.
I wonder if Thor owners had this problem.
