Mmmmmm ... power tools

[hrj]

I have spent the evening polishing the silver. With power tools. (Very small, dainty, and gentle power tools.) Everything goes better with power tools. Got all the smaller pieces done. Still have to do the two tea pots. Also have to do the final hot-water rinse to remove polish traces from product-contact ... uh ... food-contact surfaces. Then they all get popped into their anti-tarnish-cloth bags so I don't have to do this again soon. Open display is lovely, but polishing's a bitch.

This is why I didn't get around to eating dinner until 11pm. But at least it ensured that the braised duck leg was melt-in-your-mouth cooked long enough.

Dremel tool and jewelers rouge?

I have some hollow ware that needs something. I'm not getting a lot of good out of a rag and silver polish, so far. Maybe I should try power tools too.
