  4. I am going to spend the summer camping on the weekends around the Midwest. I’d love to learn more cast iron skillet recipes I can use over the open fire.

  6. I’ve been blogging for about 6 months, and it started as a small year-long goal, and has now become a passion!

    I plan on more dessert testing, learning about the science of baking, and force feeding my family summer sweets.

    I usually prefer to make things from scratch, but a KitchenAid Mixer would be helpful for things like frostings, for sho’!

  7. I would love this mixer! I would love to make whole wheat pizza dough in it and the color is amazing.

  8. I would gift this gorgeous tangerine mixer to my sissy because I have one and can’t imagine life without it. She’s an amazing cook and constantly planning family parties.

Needless to say, I’m going to need to ramp up my baking efforts in order to ease the pain of another 4 years of skool 😛

    Cheers!!
