Catastrophic failure

We had a sudden and catastrophic failure in our household last night. I was dicing up some butter to make a nice sticky toffee pudding with my pastry blender when this happened:
All of a sudden - complete failure. I regained my composure, continued the recipe and, with Tara's help, barely pulled it off.

Thank goodness Tara had ordered a new blender at a Pampered Chef party not two days earlier (how did she know?). Now I just have to figure out what to do until it arrives.

For a moment I thought this was going to be a tale of a sliced finger. I'm sorry for your loss, but happy that you still have all ten fingers!

Richard, you should know better! Before doing any blending you should look it up on Will it Blend?

(Of course, they would tell you you can blend a golf club)
