Until we stayed for a few weeks with my brother in 2002, during our year-long sabbatical trip, I never knew just how marvelously handy it could be to have one of those standing KitchenAid mixers. Mixer plus real oven == fresh quickbread or cookies in under an hour, with minimal fuss and muss. I've wanted one ever since, but where to put it in the motorhome? Fast-forward to now: Our new place has lots of kitchen countertop space, and a nice big oven. Yay!
I spent some time on Froogle and found my very own beautiful cobalt-blue mixer. Lowest price I could find from a Real Business, eg not some eBay thing, is still $50 – 60 lower than any of the President's Day sale prices I'm seeing around town, even with shipping. It's got a ways to go, but I definitely (heart) Froogle.
