ohhhh a KA thread... I got given on for mothers day, not sure of the proper colour but mine is a deep red almost cranberry in colour. Admittedly I have only used it 3 times, not much of a baker, but I am hoping to use it a lot more this year

I was a bit sad when we had to leave him at home this morning when we went out for breakfast so DH drove me past the kitchen shop where he came from so I could look in the window
And upon returning home I gave him a little caress but felt better coming in here and reading Im not the only one MrsB26

[MrsB26]

Its my cleanest appliance too, i'm forever making sure its clean and shiny. I'm about to use Esther (thats her name, cause Esther is the bester) to make a Pavlova.

Oh so i made pasta for the first time last weekend. OMG! so easy and so yummy - i did fettaccini one day and it was so quick that i made some lasagne sheets too. My bench was a mess but well worth it for the taste. I used the recipe of POK website but instead of mixing it together with the paddle first i just used the dough hook the whole way (saw them so this on the Hairy Bikers with a KA) and it was perfect!

[Rooey5]

Ooh yum! Was it wheat flour pasta?

[briggsy's girl]

i was watching an old ep of Nigella last night, and she recommends wiping out the bowl with lemon juice (same rationale as the vinegar i guess)

i haven't tried to make a pav - quite simply because i don't like them. YES, i know it may be deemed un-australian, but i just can't do force myself to like them - so i make ripple cakes instead lol
