My latest Love is hard, red and metal...

and cooks.

Sounds perfect right? Well if it cleaned, then I swear I would marry it too. I am of course talking about my new shiny Empire Red Kitchen Aid.

Since going on maternity leave (and watching way too many episodes of Master Chef, Iron Chef and Ready, Steady, Cook) I have decided to give this cooking lark a red hot go. And what better appliance to attempt this with than my Kitchen Aid. To my husband and oldest sons delight, I have been whipping up such delights at the Salmon Terrine, Scones, Muesli Bars, Cakes and other treats. In fact, I find myself searching for recipes that will let me utilise the dough hook and whisking thingo.

Whilst I think I am still a good Apple and Rhubarb pie away from competing in Master Chef (by the way- what was with Lucas' Apple pie effort? seriously dude... ) I am well on my way to providing some lovely home cooked meals for my brood.

And they love what I am producing so that is all that matters!
