I just started using my daughter's stand mixer. They are a wonderful thing. It makes you feel like you can do anything. Last night I made a couple of pizzas. One of them was a fantasy pizza.

Tonight, I made some rolls filled with little hot doggies. I didn't use the Kitchenaid though - I popped open a can. I made some with mustard and one with wasabi. Unfortunately, I've forgot which one it was. Hopefully, it still has some kick to it but I've already eaten two of the eight rolls - someone else is going to have to eat that one.
