I fixed the KitchenAid

The title of this post would lead you to believe that I performed some amazing feat. Hahaha--not really. One of the girls here has started making cookies. I saw her using the KitchenAid stand mixer last night and the bowl was wobbling up and down. I was like "whoa!" I went over and she said that it wouldn't stay still but at least she could use it. I told her that there was supposed to be a metal piece for the bowl to click into to hold it in place. This morning I got a good look at the mixer since the bowl was in the drying rack. The metal piece was there but hanging upside down. I grabbed a knife, put the metal part in the right direction, and tightened the screw with the knife. Voila! We can use it now without the bowl going all over the place. That's a good thing because I plan to use it next week to make cinnamon rolls.

Having access to a good kitchen full of ingredients, etc. is right up your alley. I know your cinnamon rolls will be gobbled up quickly when you make them!

Cinnamon rolls sound really good right now. I'll have to ask Pretty to buy some next time she goes grocery shopping. I'm sure they won't taste as good as yours, but you won't bring any over so I'll have to make do with what I can get.

Good for you. It's easy sometimes to put a part in upside down.
