I'll preface my questions by saying I'm definitely no Masterchef I have recently been diagnosed with Coeliac disease (gluten intolerance/allergy) and having finally come to terms with it, have embraced the idea of cooking, baking etc, from scratch. Pre CD I was a packet/sachet/jar very basic cook and rarely baked. If I want to eat well now, I HAVE to cook it myself!

So, I don't have a proper mixer or food processor but a few times lately, I have wished I had one or both. I do have a dodgy hand mixer and a stab blender thingy. I don't have a lot of storage space etc And whilst I have drooled over the pretty Kitchen Aids etc they are out of my price range I am looking for advice on a good entry level stand type mixer and food processor. If I find I turn completely domestic goddess I can always upgrade

So what do you have or recommend?
