I am embarrassed to share this, but I just used my Kitchen-Aid mixer for the first time yesterday....after receiving it in April 2009 from my lovely bridesmaids, who... probably have been really angry that they got me this mixer and I never used it...sorry ladies:) After the husband kept asking me when I was going to use it, rather than just stare at it on our counter, I finally buckled down, read the booklet that came with it, and decided to go for it. Why did I wait? New appliance I'm not used to, afraid it would splash stuff everywhere, and I never rushed to try it because it didn't bother me to mix batter by hand. Well, now that I have tried it, I have to say I will not be mixing batter by hand very often! I couldn't believe how smooth the batter got so quickly, how quiet it was, as I remember my mom's mixer growing up being really really loud, and how evenly everything mixed together! I'm now hooked, and can't wait to make more batter, - cookie, cake, you name it - breads, etc! Sorry again, ladies, and thanks for the mixer;)
Mixer, in the box, where it stayed for a long time...
BM's minus one - thanks Katie, Melissa, Amanda, and Jen!
notice how I only have it on stir = scared!
Yum yum yum! On a cupcake platter, yes, and I know they aren't cupcakes:)

It will change your baking life! When I got mine, and realized what I could do with it, I ended up making stuff I would have never tried before. It's amazing what you can do in the kitchen for the few minutes KA is whipping something up for you! Goodluck!
