WE MADE CHIPS!
32 year old homeowner Tali Lambourne made it abundantly clear today that she is very pleased with her new air fryer.
The marketing professional at Salescorp NZ came in hot this morning, much like the snacks she’s been cooking at home.
“Guess who just got an air fryer!?” she said loudly as she was swarmed by female coworkers congratulating her. This followed weeks of talk about the popular kitchen appliance, mainly coming from Stacey.
Stacey is the office’s “first adopter” when it comes to anything new. Needless to say she is always first in line for the new iPhone, and has crippling credit card debt.
“Tali’s been wanting one for aaages. I’m so happy she finally got one. I bought mine years ago when they first came out,” she said, looking around to see if anyone cared.
Ms. Lambourne meanwhile has done what many new air fryer owners do to dip their feet into the exciting world of air frying – she made chips.
“They were sooo good, like crunchy, but not all fatty, you know? You can tell they’re a way healthier option,” she said sagely.
“You can basically cook anything in the air fryer, I don’t really even need my oven anymore! And it’s so quick!”
Michelle meanwhile, who had remained relatively quiet throughout the morning, silently vowed that she would be the next person to get an air fryer.
And when she finally does get one, she too would talk about it.
More to come.
