The best x'mas present - Kitchen Aid Mixer

Though I may not be a professional baker, wanting to have this mixer started when I first set my eyes upon it. Of course, there are a number of factors that made my desires go stronger with each passing days. Seeing all those chefs in Food Networks (an American cooking show) using Kitchen Aids and how they bake with ease & style made me want to own them. I even wanted to get one when I was in the States after I "burnt the motor" of the existing one which is factors number two. I know you all feel that it is quite absurd, but the motor just ceases on me! However, after careful consideration (due to the different in voltage) I decided to get it after I come back to Singapore.

After umpteen time of persuasion, Jason finally give in and got me an orange colour mixer. I am in clouds nine when I bought it but Jason's pocket got a big hole....Don't worry darling, I will definitely put it in good use and bake lots of goodies for you! Darling...thanks for your generous gift!

Finally, I am ready to show it off...

After months & months of sourcing around & many many late nights of cleaning and unpacking; our house is finally ready! Didn't know that moving into a new house required so many works - both physically & mentally!

From the start sourcing a designer to choosing of materials, finding "our style" of furnishing and unpacking, I would say it takes a lot of communications and creativity. I am glad to say that Jason has been very supportive in the process. He had worked hard moving boxes here and there to make spaces for the renovation to be done and thanks to his creativity, some of the designs are unique. No doubt in the process, there tend to be lots of arguments and conflicts but we managed to come to agreements. Now we are ready for our house warming! So dear friends, please come and help warm the house...
