I hope this is as good as my last attempt at this post, which my computer ate.
This weekend, I didn't do as much work as I should have, and I had more fun than I should have. To begin with, I actually cooked meals for myself. I love to cook, but it's hard to do it on my schedule.
I'm discovering the joy of my KitchenAid Model 3B Stand Mixer. I really love it. I used it to make tortillas this weekend, and now I'm making more (the first batch didn't turn out quite the way I wanted). I've also been drooling over the new models. Therein lies the dilemma. The new ones look awesome, but it's hard to top the one I have, which is over 50 years old. The 3B was only made from 1944-1953.
Of course, the other thing that really stops me is the price. I don't do things small. I usually try to have the best of its kind, regardless of what it is. In the mixer department, that means many hundreds of dollars. Particularly if the attachments are thrown in, which they must be.
For now, it looks like I'll keep using my trusty 3B. Maybe I'll find some vintage attachments in garage sales or on eBay.
