Am I now using a stick blender to smoothen out a tomatoey curry? Also yes.

@bendaubney I managed to protect myself from the worst splatter by holding a pan lid up like a hoplite's shield between me and the blender.

@hl Maybe consider buying an apron?
Or one of those all-over ponchos they sell at rollercoasters?

@bendaubney @hl I have a big waterproof apron I use for washing dishes. Just had to buy a new one, my old one now has a spot right in the middle that's worn and still gets my clothes wet. Speaking of, should arrive today. I looked though, and this one lasted 4 years of daily use. Not bad.

@hl I've given up on buying anything light colored (like white) anymore... ;>) However, immersion blenders are pretty safe to use...
