Teresa and I went on a divinity making kick when we were kids. We burned up a few of my mom's cheap mixers. We would run out and buy what was probably an even cheaper one, and hope she wouldn't notice, of course she did. I have made it in my KitchenAid, too, and yes, you are right, it's not a happy mixer.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04590966473540137581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248786615026151726.post-41484777413385006212010-12-18T18:35:53.439-07:002010-12-18T18:35:53.439-07:00I guess mixers are the price for candy. :o) I'...I guess mixers are the price for candy. :o) I'll stick with the cheap ones.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05135456666823026419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248786615026151726.post-44143354109246449522010-12-18T18:35:02.476-07:002010-12-18T18:35:02.476-07:00I've killed a few mixers making fudge, too. :(...I've killed a few mixers making fudge, too. :( Hope your divinity is turning out... divine? ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248786615026151726.post-32709519667507258412010-12-14T07:29:15.418-07:002010-12-14T07:29:15.418-07:00I love baking Christmas goodies!

Sad. I rely on my mother in law for that one. Glad your family gets to enjoy it even if your mixer suffers. (My mind is a bit foggy. Hope this makes sense.)Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12548795843921496201noreply@blogger.com
