It's BACK! It LIVES! And it's in my kitchen. Oh yes, in all it's glory. Shiney, clean and white, right in the middle of my kitchen counter it rests. It has RETURNED.
The prodigal wedding gift has returned...
The KitchenAid 5-quart Mixer.
Oh it's so good to have it back. The stuff I can make.. the stuff I HAVE made! I stare at this beautiful gift, and the flow of endless possibilities goes through my head. What to make today! What to make today!! Yeast rolls? Bread? Cookies? Chocolate cake? Mashed potatoes are whipped in an instant! Cinnamon Rolls from scratch have never been better! Everything just got easy again! No longer does the thought of, "Oh no, I am going to hurt my arms from kneading that..." go through my head. It's now a simple choice of what number setting to put it on!
And the ATTACHMENTS that can come with it! Shred cheese, onions.. make Ice cream! I'm in culinary heaven!
Oh the potential weight gain from it's return. We must contain ourselves, and exercise great personal strength. It can be used for healthy stuff. It can be used to make the counter look pretty.
But it has return. Oh how I've missed it.
