Two hair-dryers from outer space visit a normal home on Earth to rescue a fellow home appliance from the shackles of slavery. However, the blender they came to rescue does not seem willing to follow them...Comments from readers of the print version:
His surreal story about a blender being rescued by alien electrical goods made me smile in its charming absurdity.
- Yang-May Ooi, author of Mind Game and The Flame Tree
Though Ted's story is simple, funny, witty and amusing but it's not without any underlying messages.
- Bibi Misbah

The Secret Operation in the Matriarch's Kitchen is the kind of anthropomorphic adventure you used to dream about as a five year old. It's wholesome, big-hearted and packed to the brim with great feats of derring-do.
This is speculative fiction at its finest; the grandest of adventures; the most perilous of quests. So do give it a go! It'll make you feel young again!
