The Tipsy Shopper's Thrift Store Treasures!

This is the most exciting thrift store treasure that I have found recently (Mostly because Tipsy cut me off from thrift shopping, claiming that we had "too much stuff". How much is too much?) It is called the Mixie, and was made by Silex. As far as I can tell, this came with an immersion blender of some kind and was like the mixing carafe. I'm not sure.

What's cool about Mixie is that it has measurements up the side, so it is like a giant jigger or martini pitcher. But it is tall and slim so it functions as a mixing glass. It also has a red rubber stopper, so it can be used as a shaker too.

Don't you think "Mixie" would be a perfect name for a set of dolls for that aspiring little bartender in your family? Complete with a full host of miniature cocktail accoutrements. I would have much rather played with Mixie than f*ing Cabbage Patch Kids.
Imagine:
"Hey Jennie, do you want to come over and play Mixie?"
>"Um, I guess, what Mixies do you have?"
"Dude, check it out, my mom just got me Chain Wallet Mixie for my birthday!"
>"Yeah, whatevs, like, Chain Wallet Mixie is cool, but he's not quite as cool as Tramp Stamp Mixie..."
"Yeah, Tramp Stamp Mixie is pretty rad. So- I was hanging out with Trevor the other day and he has Cater Waiter Mixie!"
>"Ugh, he is such a gaytard!"
"Who, Trevor, or Cater Waiter Mixie?"
>"Hello, both!!"
"I know, riiight!"
