As Jody was finishing the mixing by hand, she mentioned that I should pick up the "big mixer" from Nana when Ethan and I visit her on Saturday. I remembered hearing about this mixer before (and even remembered seeing it with its stretchy velvet cover), but I had never had any interest. That was all before I became a stay-at home dad, however... Ethan and I were both excited when Nana revealed to us her crisp, white and chrome Kitchen Aid Heavy Duty Mixer (For household use only).
We got it on Saturday, cleaned it up Sunday morning and baked oatmeal raisin cookies with it Sunday night. It is truly an amazing machine... Housewives everywhere should demand one of their husbands.
Ethan is mesmerized when it is turned on... and to be honest, so am I.

Those are really cool! Stef has one, and I was really excited about the attachment point in the front. I mean, it's a great powerful electric gear drive - what other non-cooking contraptions can I build and hook up to it? For that matter, it would mix paint like nothing else! Alas, I voiced these thoughts, and now can go no where near it... until it breaks. :}
I love my Kitchen Aid! I agree everyone needs one too, they make things so much easier. Maisie is very fond of ours but misses using the wooden spoon to spread flour all over the kitchen :)
