For the last little while I have had my fruit soaking for my Christmas Cakes. My kitchen has smelled like Bunderberg Distillery, as the fruit has been soaking up the rum! After my youngest son was born over 35 years ago, I decided that I wanted a food processor ( a liquidiser they were called in those days) to make preparing his food easier. Ron bought me a Kenwood Chef mixer, I still remember it like yesterday that I had this wonderful machine that cost $320! My refrigerator did not cost that much money, so how could one small appliance be so expensive? I prayed that it would be as useful as I anticipated. To this day I still use my Kenwood, when making things that need lots of mixing, and will pop the 'liquidiser' on top if that is what is needed at the time. It weighs a ton because it is all metal. I still love my Kenwood, it has never given me a moments trouble and it made it so easy to mix the first batch of Christmas cakes yesterday!! As I said I know this is not Stampin'....but justed to share
Gwen, your cakes look lovely. I know that you are taking a break from stamping over the festive season, but I wanted you to know that I have today passed a Stylish Blogger Award on to you. I look forward to catching up with you and seeing more of your lovely work in 2011
