Big blue beauty!

I am not one to have a cluttered counter, so I never wanted a stand mixer. I recently used a Kitchenaid mixer at church and fell in love! My beautiful ocean blue mixer has found its place in my kitchen...not sure why I hadn't made this switch much sooner as it makes baking quick and easy!
I purchased the 5 quart mixing bowl with handle...gotta have that handle!!
Received my Kitchenaid Artisan Series mixer as a Mother's Day gift from my two daughters as a replacement for the Kitchenaid mixer my mother had given me as a wedding present 48 years ago. My old mixer motor was getting tired and my children had watched me use it so many times over the years, that they thought it would be the "perfect gift", and they were right.
I bought this almost a year ago and I thought I would use it occasionally throughout the year but mainly during the Holidays. I was wrong, I have found multiple uses for this mixer due to the multiple attachments it comes with and that you can purchase in addition to the three that came with mine. The quality cannot be beat, I have purchased many other mixers in my 26 years of marriage only to use them occasionally and have them break down when I need them the most! I am not sure how I got along without it for so long.
I have wanted a Kitchenaid Mixer since noticing that all of the cooking shows seem to depend on the brand for top performance. I specifically purchased it because I was making a tiered wedding cake and wanted to make the Swiss Buttercream Frosting which requires an extended beating time for perfect texture. The 325 Watt motor was just great!
I am loving my new Kitchenaid mixer! I wish I had invested in purchasing it years ago. I have been enjoying baking much more frequently since buying it.
