I'm the friendly stranger in a black sedan...

I realized today that I linked to the wrong mixer in my last post. I do NOT want the Artisan mixer! I am after the pro-series mixer, as that was the one I used to work with at Sufficient Grounds. Kitchen-Aid mixers are the most amazing tool to have in any kitchen. They are amazing for their ability at the basics, but also for making things like Pasta, Ice Cream and delicate creams that need lots of volume... I have to admit though, I just want the dull grey or off-white one. I dunno, I can't explain it. I just want everything in my kitchen to have an "industrial" feel. Whites, brushed steel, classic marble...

Tonight will be the last "nice" meal I make until Kerrie and I make it to Fairfield. This coming week will be consisting of lots of sandwiches and/or salads. Not that that's bad, mind you. I just have a lot of work to take care of this week with packing and finishing out my two-weeks at The Grill.

That being said, tonight I'm going to make Grilled Chicken Breasts with Balsamic butter, paired with a Garlic Leek Puree topped with String Beans. I'm also going to bake up a loaf of Foccacia and do Apricots poached in white wine with fresh whipped cream.

Boo Yah Muh Fuh, Boo Yah...
