Newest member of the Piss-Ant Kitchen!

Hello!

Wow, it's been a while since we posted on here. It's been a busy couple of months during which I have been doing more and more cooking. It's been a lot of fun exploring and learning new things. Like when making hummus, make sure to let the food processor go for a while after adding a clove of garlic or you will get said clove in your mouth in all of it's garlicky glory. Or when you are cleaning off the cast iron skillet that your husband loves dearly and took serious time seasoning, you can't clean it like other pans.

But anyway, I am writing to today because I am really excited to share our latest addition to the PAK. We just got our first Kitchen Aid mixer!
World, meet Rosita!



I grew up with a mixer like this and strongly associate 'fun cooking' with it. So as soon as I unpacked it, I made a batch of cookies. And it was fun! It was also incredibly easy. I aspire to find more challenging recipes. I also aspire to find healthier versions of some of the many bake-able things out there. Because if I keep baking sweet yummy things... this could get dangerous:)
