I also bought the Kitchen aid, I dont use it alot, but I like the way it looks, always wanted one, bought one.
I dont need much. I broke down and bought myself Under armour coz Im sick of freezing my arse off or having so many layers I cant move. So far Im not impressed.
I must be wearing it wrong
We went to menards and got the molding and lights for our ongoing kitchen project which when its too cold for hubby to be outside, he can achieve something inside. And Ill be one happy girl.
I still need (want) a stainless steel microwave and toaster. Then I am all good.
I think this yr Im going to just enjoy the lights, the food and the atmosphere. My kids buy what they need, or want before I hear of the lastest gadget. My grandkids have way too much. (which Im happy for) And Im not going to stress my self trying to find something else. The latest favorite team jersey, a new winter coat, boring stuff like that is all Im getting them. Ill go to visit, and that will be it. Sometime after the holidays.
Save your money, spend time, its in short supply.
