          I have a treasured moment of me and my mom cooking together and I was 6 and she always made the hot food and she would let me make the salad everytime.... as I grew older then I made more of the hot meals and she made the salad... I love my mom for making me really like cooking since she was never allowed in the kitchen as a child

          I think I have way too many treasured moments because I adore cooking with my mom and grandmother so I'm going to put a treasured moment I'm looking forward too which is teaching my 1 1/2 year old daughter to cook when she's old enough:) I'm terribly excited to share my love and knowledge of cooking with her:)

          My mom had a kitchen aid mixer when I was young, we made cookies together. She bought me a mixer when I got married. I have used the life out of it!

          After my mom passed away I had to try to recreate all the good recipes that she used to make. Now ten years later I love to cook and especially to bake.

          I loved standing in the kitchen with my Grandma as she cooked everything from scratch on her farm.

          I'm the oddball here, because I don't actually love to cook. But I think I COULD if I had the proper tools. A good memory is making gingerbread houses with my daughter.

          i remember as a kid helping my great grandma roll out dough for her pie crusts and her allowing me to have the lil bits left over...and i would roll it back out and add cin and sugar..roll it up and she would bake it for me...i thought it was the best tasting thing ever. thank you!

          A favorite memory is when my husband and I cooked our first Thanksgiving meal together.

          My favorite was making CC cookies with my step grandma god rest her soul

          Heidi A. said...

          I dont have any memories to share. I grew up without my mother, and my father was always working.. Im hoping to win this so I can make memories with my step daughter in the kitchen.

          My favorite cooking memory is with my mom when I was about 8 making cinnamon rolls. She would roll out the dough into a large rectangular and I got to spread butter and brown sugar and cinnamon on it. It was a very close moment...and now I'd like to share that with my own kids. (And I'm ashamed to say I have never made homemade cinnamon rolls...a KitchenAid would help me learn!)

          Catherine said...

          I've got great memories of cooking with my mom.

          Patricia said...

          My favorite cooking memories are with my Gran. We made homemade noodles every thanksgiving and it was do much fun. There would be 10 kids and one very patient grandma covered in flour and having the mist fun ever. We she passed away, we stopped making her noodles. It wasn't the same without her giving us directions from her chair while we made them with our kids.

          Kitchen Aid is the greatest multi-tasking kitchen appliance that I know of! Thank you for bring us such great giveaways!

          My favorite cooking memory is going to my Great Grandparents house. My Great Grandma was always cooking something and everything was made from scratch. I loved to watch her and help her when I could. I wish I could have had more time to spend with her. She was an amazing cook and it was a special time for just the 2 of us.

          I've got great memories of cooking with my mom.

          Faith said...

          My nannie always giving me the extra dough from biscuits, dumplings or pie crust and letting me make my own 'creation' with it :)

          I love cooking because as the oldest of 5, it was my special time with my mom. She taught me all her favorite (and money-saving) recipes. Now, I love making those recipes for my husband and two young sons and can't wait to pass them on to them :)

          Elizabeth said...

          I'm not sure where my comment went.

          I treasure the times I cooked with my mom as a kid. As the oldest of five, I didn't get much one-on-one time...but cooking was our thing. She taught me all her recipes that I now make for my family.

          I have been baking and in the kitchen since I was 6. Making cheeses and cookies, yes at 6! lol. I have been dreaming of a mixer like this for years and would use it daily.

          My best memory I have is cooking with my sister and I had always loved her mixer (a kitchen aid). She used to let me add all the ingredients and help in every way. My sister and I are very close and I wouldn't have it any other way we still cook together for our families. It's great to make 900 to 1000 peirogi and freeze them, it takes us two to three days but it's the best time ever. The one thing I have never purchased for my own kitchen is a kitchen aid I would love to have one.

          I have wanted one of these mixers for so long. I think it would work so much better than my crumby little hand mixer and would be so much more versatile.

          Kandi said...

          Best memory i have is cooking lunch with my daughter. It was grilled cheese and tomato soup. All she did was stir the soup but she was so proud of herself and asked me how i liked "her" soup

          I have gotten my family on agluten free diet to help the kids in school! It seems to be working, the only down side ishaving to make many many doughs instead of buying them! It is fun to bake though!

          My grandma and myself love to bake we have always talked about wanting a kitchenaid mixer but we have been unable to afford one it would be amazing if i won so i could share her dream with her:)

          Erin Slocum said...

          I have been cooking since I was around 5 years old with my mom. I think my best memory was the first time my daughter helped me. It brought back so many memories.

          I'd love this mixer as the one I've used for 8 years recently quit working.

          Watching my mom make her homemade meatballs and spaghetti sauce(suco). No one could make sauce like my mom!! MANGIA! MANGIA! :)

          My youngest love to bake with me. One time I heard a "MMMMmmm!!" I looked over and a little hand print was taken out of the bread we made.

          I love memories of baking christmas cookies with my grandma and cousins

          Heather W said...

          For as long as I remember, every December my mom's roommate from college and her daughters would cook Christmas cookies with us. It was an all weekend event and full of Christmas movies, music, fun, and of course food! I will always treasure these memories and am looking forward to continue the tradition with my children.

          Alexis said...

          I bake home made cakes and cookies ALL the time....I would absolutely LOVE one of these....I would buy one but they are not cheap unfortunately :-( I hope I win because it would make....making my own pie crusts effortless!!!!!
