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?

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)

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.

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?

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.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get...

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel. they offered me an endoscopic biopsy ...

      Is it gluten?

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗

My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.
