happy birthday to me


Today I am 26 years old. My husband surprised me one day early--I came downstairs yesterday morning and found this lovely thing sitting on my kitchen counter. Oh, the possibilities it holds! As I get acquainted with this new member of my kitchen family, I'll be posting on how it works and what delicious things I can make with it. I've heard rave reviews from everyone on how easy it is to use and how quickly it produces yummy things to eat. My husband found this particular mixer refurbished online, which made it a lot more reasonably priced.

My parents, having thus far married off four of their seven children, have their own tradition of wedding gifts for the new couple. One, my mom makes a beautiful quilt to cover the bed, and two, the couple makes the choice of whether they would like a standing Kitchenaid mixer (like the one my mom's been using for 30-odd years) or the monetary equivalent. Only one of the four have chosen the money, and the rest of us are sure that's only because she'd never had the pleasure of using one before. :)

Here's to many happy years with your new mixer!

(Have you ever heard of Bosches? Though I'm faithful to my Kitchenaid, I hear Bosches are glorious, too.)

Oh Rachel, the jealousy is too hard to bear. :) Just kidding, I know that my husband wants to buy me a kitchenaid mixer in time. I hope you love it and enjoy it, and very happy 26th birthday, sister of mine. I like you a lot more now than I ever did in middle school!

Love,

Martha

OOOOOOH, cousin, I didn't know that you were such a talented cook, let alone such a creative writer! Very interesting reading. Oh yeah, happy birthday as well......a fellow Septemberer!

This is my first experience reading someone's blog, but I will keep up with this one.
