chopped leaves

[joefryfry]

So my wife bought me a food processor. I once thought that the leaves that collect in my garage with no door were a nuisance. Like clockwork, I went to the garage and there were plenty of leaves. Good thing since there is about 2 inches of snow on the ground. They were nice and dry. Took a bit to get my leaf sucker going in the cold, but it was also conveniently sitting there, along with the collection bag. So I let them dry in my basement a few days and baked some leaves yesterday. My wife is already a big whiner about the smell. The food processor chopped them up real nice. So a fellow I work with gave me a magnet, but it is a loop that the material has to pass through without touching the sides. Sounds like a pain. What are the risks of not demagnetizing the leaves?
