In which I can't stop singing "Blue, blue, electric blue..."

I have wanted a kitchenaid stand mixer for a long time. I do a lot of baking, so it would be well used, but they are very expensive. So decided that I would work out when it was 400 days before my 30th birthday and start saving £1 a day, so I could splash out for my birthday.I did a wedding cake in January and kept aside the money I had been paid

Oh wow! I'd love one of those things :) Wish it was that many days before my 30th, but I have just under 6 months now, eep.

Lentil is so cute!!

Thanks... I think he is just precious! But then I am very biased!

That is gorgeous! I inherited a kenwood chef which I believe will last my lifetime! No pretty appliances for me :(
(... not complaining because it is amazing)

That's very cool indeed. I think your husband is right, and that you definitely deserve to treat yourself... and it is so beautiful.

How exciting!

Thanks Jo... and as you'll have sampled last night it makes very good cupcakes, and bread that definetly needs some work!

Yeah, the cakes and icing were absolutely fabulous. We definitely appreciated them after a day out in the dales. Thank you muchly.

LOVE the colour! The mum bought a red one recently with a stainless steel bowl; I've only used it a couple of times, because I'm lazy and would generally rather beat and mix by hand than wash the components of a mixer, but it's fantastic for making pavlova and meringue icing.

Yeah I didn't intend to get the glass bowl and it is really quite heavy! But it was the only blue one they had...
