Omg, my husband surprised me with an empire red, 5-qt., 325-watt KitchenAid mixer last night!!!! I couldn't believe it. Oh the things I can make now. I feel like I can run with the big dogs now!

Oh yeah, and it's not my birthday or our anniversary either.

Oh no!! Not red!! That's the color I want!!!!!!!!! My kitchen is in country blue, white and red... everything is covered in apples lol .. so red would be just so pretty up on my cabinet *sigh* I have a white one and I'm not wishing for it to die, but if it did, there'd be a pretty red one in it's place icon_biggrin.gif

Congrats and I'm envious of that beautiful new red mixer you have !! icon_biggrin.gif

That is so nice of husband to surprise you with KA mixer, cause I know it sure comes in handy with a lot of mixing, cause I still have my hand mixer tucked away just in case my KA should suddenly die out on me, let me not speak to loud cause I have to use it today, Thursday and also on Saturday. I am sure it will get a lot of usage out of it. Enjoy! thumbs_up.gificon_smile.gif

I have the Artisan 325 and love it to death.

Last Friday, I brought the PRO600, 525 watts (mail in rebate for the extra bowl also came with it). Hecht's (also called Foley's and May Store in certain areas) had an outstanding sale. Between the sale price, plus extra 20% off and my getting my son to open new account for the 10% to open new account, I paid only $274.00...what a bargain!!! I just love bargains.

I have them both setting side by side and they both have their own names icon_wink.gif I'm famous for naming my things and talking to them. My van has her own name also and gets alot of talking too. Crazy, right?

I LOVE KA TO DEATH icon_cry.gificon_cry.gif

I'm hoping my fiance will surprise me with a pink kitchen aid mixer.!! Pink is my all time favorite color. My aunt also has breast cancer so I know that it would also be money well spent considering some of the proceeds go to cancer research. icon_biggrin.gif

WOW! I'm holding out for a red Pro6 to go along with my other 2 (that way I'll have one of each size LOL). That was quite a deal you scored!
