First of all, this isn’t Heather. This is the husband. And it seems I’ve hijacked Sugar & Butter…okay, I convinced her to let me guest blog. Isn’t she great?
Right now I basically have two responsibilities in the kitchen: slice things with my knife, “Gertrude” and help with dishes. Three if you count Official Taste Tester. But if we had one of THESE I would seriously lobby to add mixing to my list.
I saw this mixer walking through Crate & Barrel. (That’s right, I’m man enough to go to Crate & Barrel, especially if there is a Red Mango treat in it for me afterwards.) But seriously, just look how great this thing is! It’s all chrome, cord storage, beaters, whisks, and dough hooks, all at 5 different speeds and powered by a 240 watt motor. That’s about as much as a (really small) weed eater. And if that’s not a manly mixer, then I don’t know what is.
P.S. I wasn’t allowed to buy it. Oh well…

Dad and I loved, loved, loved the guest blogger. Dad even liked the mixer. We vote to let him have one!
Funny post, Ryan! Come on, Heather…get the man the mixer! My hubby can’t make toast, so I’m very impressed that he’s not just a cute official taste-tester, but also willing to help! If you don’t get him the mixer, Ryan may go all “Home Improvement” and put a turbo engine on your Kitchen Aid Mixer!!
Hmmmm, somehow I don’t remember you being this handy in the kitchen at home or eager to help out, especially with the dishes. Good job, Heather!
Maybe you’ll get one for Christmas.
If you are a good boy…
