Favorite Things Wednesday: Beater Blade

As I read the Splendid Table email this morning and the Rose Levy B email last night - I felt very thankful for having this great hobby/love/interest in life - and thankful to have a kitchen that I love with almost every gadget that I have ever needed to use (after a few years of collecting). It's amazing too that other people show up - and don't have the same feeling. It's great how the kitchen fits the cook! Now - remembering my last several kitchens is what really makes me feel thankful! Whether it was living without an automatic dishwasher, or not having space for another set of ramekins - I am now very thankful for my kitchen tools. So -I'm going to share my 'favorite things' and how they have made my life better!
favorite things Wednesday:
Kitchen Aid Beater Blade

http://www.amazon.com/Design-Beater-5-Quart-KitchenAid-Mixers/dp/B0015TH9PO

$30

Benefits: Continuously beats, scrapes, folds and mixes ingredients for KitchenAid, Cuisinart, Viking and DeLonghi stand mixers. Virtually eliminates hand-scraping and batter build-up on the blade, Made in the USA.

** You can even get it in PINK if you have a 5 quart kitchenaid! Hopefully, they will make this in fun colors for the 6 qt soon.

** Issues: Lately, it has been making loud noises when I use it. It sounds like it is coming from the scraping - not the mixer. It makes mixing batters so much easier and faster that I live with
the noise.

Judging by this post, I'm going to enjoy reading your "Favorite Things Wednesdays". We're tightening our belts so our household has a moratorium on new stuff (although I managed to wiggle in a new fry pan on clearance); I will have to stock my kitchen vicariously through you!
