I know. It’s sad. I traded in my super flash 20 million cup rice cooker for a dinky old one just because of the colour …

And the instruction book was pretty groovy too. And the cord.  And the button.  And the lid and handle.

Actually, I do still have the old one. I just prefer this one.  The old (new) one languishes at the back of the cupboard, while this one is front and centre, cheering me up whenever I peek in at my appliances.
