The general consensus seems to be that we’re going to do less baking this holiday season because we’re not going to be visiting as many friends and relatives (and feeling the obligation of bringing some sort of treat we didn’t just pick up at the store 10 minutes before knocking on the garland-festooned door). I don’t feel that way at all. It seems to me all the people who do minimal to no baking are going to do a lot more of it because they have to make up for the cookies and pies and gingerbread they’re not getting from anywhere else.
In any case, you’re going to need to level up your kitchen this winter. To do that, we suggest taking advantage of the absolutely bonkers sale at KitchenAid where you can pick up their Professional 5 Plus Series 5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer for 50% off.
That’s right, you can score a $200 discount on this top-of-the-line stand mixer, in either red or silver. For those more familiar with the tilt-head mixers (where the top of the mixer tilts back to remove the mixing bowl) this model moves the bowl up and down instead, which is better when you’re dealing with heavier mixes. And like many KitchenAid mixers, you can add attachments to turn this puppy into an all-in-one culinary workhorse, churning out everything from fresh pasta to ice cream.
Don’t have any interest in buying one for yourself? That’s OK, this will make a great gift for someone else. After all, it’s never too early to start checking off that list.
