Heh. The fry cutter. That’s one unitasker I have fond memories of. My mother had a vertical one (wedding gift I think) and we’d all take turns doing our best to manually smash a potato through the metal grates. Took a lot of little kid power to make fries.
She still has it stashed away in the pantry somewhere, but I think the plastic top part broke after many years of use.
And no, I would never ever buy one. My mandoline works fine.

About yard maintenance…Perennials are not low maintenance. Having a whole yardful can be backbreaking bend over maintenance with all the deadheading, dividing, feeding and trimming, and even then many look crappy by mid summer. I speak from years experience as a landscape designer and contractor. The best solution is to have just a few plants that are fabulous! Dwarf conifers, some of the flowering shrubs, some perennials and annuals, and most grasses fit in this category. You do not need many plants if you choose wisely.
