Mix it up!

I have joined the ranks of KitchenAid mixer owners! I've been wanting one since I graduated from college, and now, five years later, I have one. I splurged quite a bit and got the custom metallic because I wanted it to match any future kitchens I may have. Lucky for me, Michael was working for a company that had KitchenAid as a client and he got a nice discount for items from them. I hadn't gotten one until now because I was waiting until I had over $300 to spend (which is very easy to continually push off). But when he interviewed and accepted a new job somewhere else, I knew I had to take advantage of the discount before he left. I opted for the brushed nickle, and it's beautiful! With the discount, I spent what what the cost of a painted one in a regular store would have been, which ended up being close to $200 in savings on the custom metallic. Not too shabby if I do say so myself!

Let the baking begin!

I am jealous! I have been looking at these for more years than I want to admit. I was drooling at Vanessa's. I won't get this super deluxe model, but another some day.
