Blown Away

Yesterday I wanted to try out a recipe I had received from a friend of mine, so I gathered all the ingredients and hauled (the very heavy) Kitchenaid Mixer from its roost on top of the fridge. After almost dropping it and killing myself (note to self, find a better place to store mixer), I got to work. And oh my goodness. I don't know how I baked without this thing. While it mixes I can start clean-up or get the next step ready.

Sorry about the randomness, I just had to share. And if any of you are interested in a cookie cake (but better) type recipe...
