I'm over joyed with excitement to announce that as of today, I'm now a proud owner of a Kitchen Aid. It has taken a few years of wanting, searching and bargain hunting and now I finally have it :leap: :leap: :leap:
I'm greatly appreciative to my DP for purchasing it for me :loveshower:
Thank you for letting me share :)
woo hoo!
Jealousssssssss :)
Omg I saw on FB! Soooo jealous and excited for you! Please post millions of pics of your adventures. And it's PURPLE! So lovely!
Thanks girls. I figured the :bfp: is taking its time so in the mean time I'll be :leap: with joy with a KA.
I was a wee bit sneaky on FB with my status update wasn't I Punky? :lol:
I had a feeling it would be a KA...as soon as I saw there were clues I was convinced. What will you make first, that's the pressing question! (I think cupcakes iced in purple to celebrate, OM!)
So jealous :)
I cant wait to join the KA club!!!
i have just put chocolate cake in the oven - love my KA - so convenient!
Welcome to the club... ;)
Mine was delivered early Dec and it is wonderful. The first thing I made was cookies and they turned out so much better than other times I have made them. Enjoy your KA :)
ooh cake soooooo light anf fluffy! nom nom!
E has given it the tick of approval lol
Lisa, if I remember correctly did you buy your KA from ApplianceSurplus?:
Enjoy your yummy fluffy cake... yumo!:
Now is there a KA appreciation society thread? :think:
it looks so pretty, and purple and shiny!!
*goes to touch it but doesnt*
what you making with yours???
KA Appreciation Society member here! We'll have to start a thread!
We mince our own beef and chicken now, make hash browns, pancakes, cupcakes, and other goodies! ... Pizza dough, juice apples and pears, grate cheese and carrot and all sorts! I made coleslaw for Christmas, it shredded all my cabbage and carrot perfectly, and it was so good! It even mashes potatoes, if you're that way inclined.
Can't wait to get a matching blender and food processor!
Wow! You do so much. What attachments do you have with it?
The lady tried to up sell today, but sadly the KA itself was enough for today.
We use the regular bowl, with the whisk, beater and hook for the mixing, pancakes, cakes, eggs, dough etc.
We've got the mincing one, the juicing one that kind of work like a juicer/pureer, because when you do juice it pushes the puree out one side and the juice drips out the bottom. Really nice for purees to mix through yoghurt or through pancakes or muffins or ... anything LOL!
We have a tumbler thing with 4 different drum bits that slice in two sizes (great for potato bake or apple pie!) and grates in two sizes. Except the smallest grate is more like a pureer/masher (think soft potatos you use when you make has browns, if you put the potato through the smallest one you end up with pureed/mashed potato! Or put cabbage through the smallest one... pureed carrot lol!
I bought the attachments from Your Home Depot, an online store, and it all came in the one attachment pack for $299, it's called the KitchenAid Mixer Attachments & Accessories Attachment Pack.
All I need now is the pasta attachment pack! In my dreams...
Oh and I might feel the need to buy the other two drums sets, but I'm not sure yet... I think they'll just do the same thing as the four drums we've got but you never know, maybe they are slightly different hahahahha
Luckily I have my partner on side so I don't have to do much convincing to buy KA attachments!
Wow! You certainly make the most of the KA.:
I brought my KA at Your Home Depot IRL.
I think I already know what I'll be asking for my Birthday ;)
I've started a thread for KA Appreciation Society
Yep, I bought mine from Appliance Surplus. The delivery took a while but I think it was worth it :)
Oh and I made the BEST pavlova with mine on Christmas day! So easy!
