It's too cold in my kitchen to get out from under my blanket and play with my new kitchen toy that came today.

It got delivered today and was sooo excited but couldn't use it as one of the plug pins was all bent out of shape. Fortunately I found a use for MrGeeves1980 and his big oaf like man hands. He felt quite proud of himself cos he'd fixed something and is usually the most unpractical man ever!

what is it?

I know, I know. Liz alert over the cats, but they are hilarious. one of them has a new trick....in fact the Christmas loving one....she gets on to the pelmet in the sitting room, and runs the whole way along then moonwalks back along it.....it has me in pieces its so funny.

edit...in fact, we have three windows and she does it along all of them, but I could work out how to say that....lol, I'm feeling the difference in the meds this week....words slowly dripping away...but I feel good.

Also, message to Sue.....you go girl....2010 is going to be better and 2011 even more so. It's what you cope with and do now that makes them so.

Personally, I can't wait until 2034...life should be just perfect by then if the above theory is true.:o

It's a Kenwood Chef, recent model. Bought it off ebay and I feel really guilty about the price I paid for it, almost like I broke into the guys kitchen and stole it from him!

Was £86 and brand new would be over £350. Hardly any scratches in the bowl so I believe it's been used the 3 times he stated in the listing.

I don't think he realised (or cared) what it was. Probably something the wife bought, never used and he's glad to see the back of it. He had it listed badly and I stumbled across it and took advantage, hence why I feel bad (though not enough to offer him another £100).

That's class. I have one too. Although I wouldn't call myself a high end type of chef - I do find the Kenwood excellent for stirring beans into mashed potato, a liitle Brownian haute cuisine delicacy - or for liquidising the cat's tea (his teeth have all gone nowadays).

Even the Mr is impressed, from a manly, quality of the engineering point of view!

I like it as it's shiny as well as practical!

Now I just need to learn how to cook....

I got a Kenwood thingy in a wedding present and the only time I ever took it out of the box was when the brat and I watched Peter Pan.

She wore her Tinkerbell dress and I used the bread hook to emulate the bloke with the problem with clocks.

Sadly that is a true story.
