Day 134 - DIY Hits Again, Chickpeas Threaten to Revolt

Three hours, a half bag of dried garbanzo beans, two gutted lemons and one exhausted food processor has netted me a delightfully gloppy and slightly dry hummus.

The argument for DIY is that you save money. Hmmmm ....

$10 for ingredients
$8 for a cheap food processor*

I could have gotten a couple of buckets of prefab hummus at HEB for $18.

Damn. Damn. Damn.
 
* I have a shocking lack of kitchen appliances. No microwave. No blender. In fact, my one-shot pod coffee maker abdicated its throne by throwing out its closing mechanism/arm yesterday.
