1st divorce caused by the Daily Mail comments section?

LOL .... you can never tell if it's real unless you track it down on the page.

So I checked and it's real....

Although it could be "contrived" to go viral.

You might find it on this link: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2478798/Kelly-Brook-poses-festive-lingerie-line-New-Look.html?offset=300&max=100#comment-40788143

It wasn't the typo that threw me.... I don't know what a Kitchenaid is.

I'll google it.

Blimey .... it's a huge expensive mixer. £400 or so... blimey.

What do you use it for, how often?

Oh.....

A poncey mixer. Stronger than a hand mixer.

I have had a handmixer all my cooking life ( actually two, my stinky ex took my first one). First one cost a tenner, second cost something like eight euros. ( still haveit)

Now I'm not always strong enough to use a hand mixer. So I was given the kitchen aid.

You can buy attachments, but I don't know it well enough to know if its worth it for me. I have used the whip and the beaters. I think it has a dough hook, but I used the brea machine dough hook because I also leave bread to rise in the bread machine.

Cake mixes and pastry.

At least every weekend .

Mine was bought with gift money from my mum that was unspent by me when she died. I regard it as my last present from her.

I am not a gadget person and I love this.

I've hardly used mine because it got abused so quickly, but I'm glad to have it back for winter baking.


I was given some lovely cake revipes in old style today, I might try one of those for the weekend.
