Hi Dave,

 DD> Last thing I used my stand mixer, which does not move off the counter
 DD> easily, for was a bundt cake which I made as a my contribution to a
 DD> pot luck at my work.

 RH> I have a Kitchen Aide Professional, 6 quart mixer that stays on my
 RH> (limited) counter space. I've used it for mixing up & initial kneading
 RH> of bread, last time I used it was for the fig cake. I'll be making
 RH> another one of those next week for a pot luck and seeing a hand doctor
 RH> about the right hand; right now there's no way I could knead a loaf of
 RH> bread.

 DD> I had one of those but it went to live with my sister-in-law when her
 DD> old mixer's gears got all wonky. I replaced it with a Cuisinart stand
 DD> mixer for a lot less money than I paid for the KA. It's more than
 DD> adequate for my needs. and much nicer looking than the old Fire Engine
 DD> Red KA. Here's a pixture - http://tinyurl.com/12SPEEDMIX

I've seen the fire engine red, as well as other colors. Since Steve was
still active duty Army at that time and we knew we had at least one more
move ahead of us, we went with the pewter grey color. It goes well with
whatever kitchen color I have (but I still like Alton Brown's flame
mixer). (G)
