Where My Technological Limits Are Demonstrated Along with a Kitchen Aid

As you know, I was busy on Monday playing hooky with my kid. Several people have asked if the KitchenAid has been christened. Here is evidence of its first run. Diana agreed to work the camera so you can blame her for the fact that I am doing all this sideways. She insisted the video could be flipped. Well, I managed to do that so we can watch it oriented correctly on our computer but YouTube seems to just turn that thing right back on its side. So I am sorry about that. I have no idea how to fix it and it took forever and a day to upload these darned videos anyway. If you wind up with a crick in your neck I know a good chiropractor for those of you in the Boston area. Mercifully, all the videos are under a minute and a half so be brave.

Embee, notice I do a special dance inspired by you in the first clip.




After listening to myself screech over the whir of the mixer I now understand why my kids can't stand to hear me screech. Don't tell them though, ok?




Jocelyn, since you have asked on more than one occasion for me to post the kitchen dancing I actually had the kids take a video of me dancing at the sink as I am wont to do. It was far too disturbing a sight for me to post. Forgive me. Besides, it is sideways. Maybe once I loose 50 pounds, I am not conscious of being captured on video, and I am not sideways....maybe. Instead, I offer a very brief clip of me spreading chocolate on top of the cake, which is far more tantalizing, though it does nothing to help with that necessary weight loss. The bonus is that Diana had resigned her post as videographer so this clip is properly oriented.
