Okay, I'm not sure if I'm totally in love yet. Too short an acquaintance. But my new "Pro" KA mixer is so darned sexy that I believe I'm falling hard for it. rofl Mixed the dough for the shortbread for Strawberry Shortcake. NO RESIDUE in the bottom of the bowl. Everything mixed perfectly. Both the filling and the whipped cream also turned out to perfection. And I could actually add ingredients without turning it off, lifting the mixer head, etc. There's a night-and-day difference between the Artisan and the Pro. Doing the Snoopy dance! sm

I'm sure I could find something at WS, there's one in Grand Rapids that I wander through whenever I get the chance but seldom buy because it's so expensive. Maybe really good knives, and I bought my farm animal waffle iron there when they finally went on clearance. Elery left some of that copper cookware with the acorns here, but I never use them, they're too pretty, LOL. I'd love to have a couple more Calphalon hard anodized things, I love the 8 quart pot I use for jam and the 2 quart saucepan. I don't like the "everyday" pan with those two stupid handles on the sides, who the heck thought of that? I can't pick the blasted thing up and pour stuff out of it without burning myself. I asked that question a couple of times here and never got an answer, so I didn't buy one. That didn't stop Elery, though. He doesn't like it either, which is why it's here with me. Unused. As for the Le Crueset, I've never really wanted any. Elery has a couple of pieces and they're OK, but I still prefer my Lodge cast iron dutch oven, made right here in America. Never been to Sur La Table or Ikea or even Homegoods. I love Crate and Barrel in Chicago but I always take the train and I know I'd never get items back unbroken. Never been to a Kitchen Collection or Dansk outlet either. Iunderstand there's a Pfaltzgraf outlet in HOlland, about an hour and a half from me, but I've not been there yet either. Please excuse any typing errors, I'm using Ashley's laptop and I just hate it!!! Annie

Thanks for helping me spend my money Sue ;-) I didn't buy any cooking gadgets but I bought a couple of shelving units to help organize my stuff. Tracey
