Sugar cookies in the shape of the number 100, of course.
I pulled out this lovely cookbook that my dear hubby gave me for Christmas and jumped into making cookies.
It was all going well until........
the batter got a little touch for my little mixer to handle. (Yes, that's one of the beaters sitting in the bowl.)
I'm pretty sure that Martha doesn't use a mixer like mine.
So tell me, does my Sugar Cookie mishap justify getting one of these?

I have the same mixer as you. It's not great. I think I paid something like $40 for it a 9 years ago or so. At the time I decided to get the cheap model and see how often I use it. I would upgrade if it turned out to be a lot. I don't bake cookies too often where it's a problem. The bowl on the other hand bugs me. The flat bottom makes small batches really hard. Then I realized that my Pampered Chef mixing bowls fit perfectly. So I am going to stick with old good enough and only dream of the queen of mixers. Let's see what color do I dream of this week? Probably that vintage jadite green.
My older son, the baker here, wants one of those. It won't be pink and he'll be spending his own hard-earned money if he does.
I say ABSOLUTELY! I have a Kitchen Aid stand up mixer and I love it! I use it for everything!
Get the mixer! I received a Kitchenaide mixer as a wedding gift 8 years ago. It's great we use it all the time. I highly recommend it. Of course mine is boring old white. I love that pink!
I bought a Kitchen Aide mixer for my husband about 10 years ago and it is still going strong. We sue it all the time so I think it was worth every penny. He makes sausage, jam bread dough, and juices with the attachments. If you get one, you'll love it.
Anything justifies getting one of those!!
