Folks, I know my birthday is over and done with. I blogged it, you read it, you moved on.
But can we please revisit the fact that I received a Kitchenaid stand mixer for my birthday?? As in, the one thing I've been longing to own. It's one of those sorts of appliances I resigned myself to not owning until I got married (hello, bridal registry). Or at least, I'd assumed that would be the case.
Then along come my darling friends and their scheming and voila: I'm not just a saucy gal with a penchant for baking and a hand mixer, anymore. I'm, like, legit.
Hand me my chef hat, please.
Despite dying to take her on her maiden voyage this week, I just didn't have the opportunity until last night. A friend and I hosted our initial meeting for a book club we're starting and we decided to whip up some of my favorite cookies: Peanut Butter, Chocolate, and Blackberry Jam cookies.
A stand mixer and my favorite cookies?? Be still my beating heart!
Here are some photos of this momentous occasion, a new era for KatyintheKitchen, really.
Oh, and if you are interested, check out the video below of me opening my mixer during my birthday dinner with some close pals. It's not filled with hand flapping, surprised shrieking or anything like that. . .
