I totally would have bought that KitchenAid because I want one and I can't seem to bring myself to spend 250 bucks on it until I start some serious baking. I think I just want one to say I have one so I can be cool, too.<br /><br />P.S. I found your blog through Where We Love is Home (Joelle my real life BFF) and think you're awesome! I live in Westlake Village, so I've had some similar foodie experiences at the places ( a.k.a the Counter OMFG I die) and definitely want to try some of the places you've mentioned - so thanks! =)Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17533940766022983633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4720058975448051242.post-20112361738701397972011-06-08T14:17:53.592-07:002011-06-08T14:17:53.592-07:00We are in the process of trying to buy our first h...We are in the process of trying to buy our first home.
