KitchenAid, you can be mine!
DO YOU SEE HOW CHEAP THIS IS?
I'm okay with reconditioned. The truth is I can't even really afford this right now. But, a girl can lust, yeah? I would like Imperial Gray. My mom has one of these. Except its the insanely ginormous variety.
It can only be shipped in the US *sniff*.

We're having Angelica and her husband and kids for dinner (the friend I met at LLL) I'm taking some Jamie Oliver steps and doing a chicken caesar salad and I'm also making a side of fettucini alfredo. Should be delicious. It will involve the rubbing of chicken legs with rosemary, olive oil, salt/pepper and baking in a pan with bacon with some chunk of the delicious french baguette that I made last night to crisp up as croutons for the salad. If all goes well I can just rip the chicken off the bone and toss it in the salad. I got the most beautiful and enormous head of lettuce at the Dungarvan food fair so, putting that to use. Be jealous.
I also made brownies yesterday but in an attempt to avoid the nasty dry cake-like brownies I made last time I overdid it on the butter. They are still great, though. I don't know why I messed with a good thing... I had made the perfect brownie about 3 or 4 times in a row. Maybe its my ass trying to tell me to stop making brownies.
I think I'll make more baguettes today to be fresh for dinner since one loaf got devoured by the time I woke up this morning and I've cut up most of the other loaf to dry out the bits for crouton time. I have to stop talking about food. I need to clean this filthy house before I bring in visitors. I didn't cycle this morning because JANE SLEPT IN! You don't understand what this means. She's been up at 7 (or 10-15 'til) for the last, ever. This morning she slept until 20 past 8. YAY FOR MOMMY, sleep in for me. I can sacrifice for that. I finally figured out the gears so the hills I'm climbing are just a tad bit easier on my quads. I think I need to find a different route to train on. I have some ideas. I just can't be climbing a hill for 2 miles just to turn around and fly back down it (no matter how much fun this part is, I think the cows/horses think I'm crazy because I do lots of yelling "wooohoooo" type things). I have a proper helmet now and a gel seat that is oh-so-much-more comfy. Now if only the gloves I ebay'd would get here.
It's too cold for mid-April. It's a bit below 40F. Sigh.
