Of course I am talking the brick and mortar Goodwill......it's all about the textile response Debbi...

....you can't get that online.

But seriously, I didn't know they had an online store, DH ears just perked up when I told him about it. Maybe my beaters would be there?

More than likely! It's an auction like ebay, so if someone is after the same thing, well you know how that goes! Shopgoodwill dot com Love that site!

Gunna haffu check dat out!!!! Thank you Debbi!

Have a great evening everyone, running over the 2nd Annual Bottle Exchange Dinner at the neighbors...this should be interesting, we didn't make it to last years event.

haha no, but they do make one I believe.

http://www.kitchenaid.com/flash.cmd?/#/product/KSM155GBCA/ this is the one I have, but in a silver color. If you hunt around on there you will see all the attachments you can get.

The ones that you put into the bottom of a hand held mixer.....but the ones for the hand held kitchenaid mixer are a PIA to find and of course they have to be brand specific. If I wanted to pay and arm and a leg I could get them new....but used is much better.

It used to beat up some mean Marans eggs for fluffiest scrambled eggs ever.

you need the hand held beaters for the kitchen aid? I will write it in my list of wants for when I go treasure hunting... I find awesome stuff sometimes! So you just never know!

I have the hand held kitchenaid mixer/beater and the blender and the big stand mixer with the attachments......in pink of course.

Thanks Vicki, bookmarked it. Looks like the old ones around here. The site wouldn't load with this stupid dial-up, but I had to open another tab. Will look at it tomorrow. I've seen the vintage ones in Antique stores around here, and they sure weren't cheap! I like the jadeite green ones, but I've seen them in pink, blue, yellow, and white too. Will keep my eyes open now!

Debbie the kitchenaid doesn't actually make bread but makes it alot easier lol. It is heavy duty and you can even get replacement parts or have the motor rebuilt. It makes short work of kneading bread does it really fast. Most mixers can't handle kneading bread dough especially for the larger loafs. Then you have to shape it the old fashion way, let rise etc. I like shaping my own breads and rolls etc so that's why I don't like bread machines they cook it into this little square lol. Anyhow you can get all kinds of attatchments for them that do different things.

Yep I love the meat grinder we got the sausage stuffer attachment and made ghost chile sausage for dh who like stuff so hot it burns out both ends lol. Then we made chicken, apple, and gouda cheese sausage, and a regular spicy type sausage for those of us who like to taste thier food and not lose thier tastebuds haha.

Just made a big pot of chicken/veggie soup tonight. Fresh chicken (as in Blue Butt!), and homeade noodles would've made it that much better! Yum!!!

sounds like both you ladies had lovely meals going!

I went to Sonny's and had their All you can eat spare ribs..... YUM YUM is all I have to say!
I don't normally do ALL you can eat, but with RIBS it is the ONLY WAY to go!
