happy graduation to me - the parents bought me a kitchenaid mixer!

i'm such a nerd... i have the whole red kitchenaid kitchen... that was the last thing (pretty much).

so my question is... what attachments do you recommend, if any?

i am going to start with a citrus juicer, because making lemonade every two days gives me popeye arms and nearly a heart attack for my poor bod.

My mom bought me one last year for my 40th. I had my grandmother's from probably the 30's or so. It has the milk glass bowls etc. I have to see, but I think the attachments will work on either. My grandmother had ALL the attachments. I even have the butter churner! I don't think I'll use that one.

I just posted a query about the dough hooks. Wonder if they work well?

Oh yes, if you don't have that plastic bowl cover with the chute thingie on it? Get it!

I have the red mixer too!!! When I worked at House & Garden I became obsessed with the Kitchen Aid mixer. Well that and the Dyson vaccum, but the mixer was cheaper to get. LOL!!

It's so excited! All I decided I needed to complete the whole collection is the coffee maker (which I will get when my current one breaks), and the food processer, eventually... But with all the other stuff, I don't REALLY need that. i'm just greedy! B)

sidenote: little excited because i returned the artisan today and got the professional! (it went on sale and was only a ten dollar difference). jeez, i love costco.

You know, I'll have to look but I think that there is an attachment (or at least on the old one...) for meat grinding. That old one has a whole lot of crazy attachments and I think they're interchangeable from the looks of it. I found this list of attachments similar to mine - check it out!

meat grinder/food chopper

coffee grinder

can opener

knife sharpener

polishing wheel

slicer/shredder

fruit and vegetable peeler

drink mixer

ice cream freezer motor

butter churn

pea sheller

larger reamer for juicer to squeeze fresh grapefruit juice

horn-shaped sausage stuffer

WOW!

I use the meat grinder and sausage stuffer the most. But I also got an ice cream maker, the shredder, the food mill and pasta thingie.

Congrats and Happy Graduation!!

I don't have a Kitchenaid yet, but it's on my list...

Cograts on the Graduation!! I wish I had a Kitchenaid...my neighbor has a professional that he has loaned me until this weekend. It's so much nicer than the one my Grandma had eons ago. It's on my list of things to get along with the Dyson and a few others.

Just an FYI for everyone... I was just drooling over the Kitchenaid on amazon after getting a Mothers Day email from them. For now through the end of the month, their is some sort of rebate that you get to pick a free attachment (grinder, juicer or something else). Did you get that rebate Lorka?

So what's the difference in what it does between the regular one and the upgrade?

lorka150 Collaborator

No, I didn't, because I am Canadian! :)

It just has a stronger/larger capacity... More power. 'Better' parts to it.

The Artisan was definitely good though, and had I not found such a great deal on the other, I wouldn't have gotten the better one.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot! 
    • trents
      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
