I just had to brag. I went to a house sale yesterday and found a Kitchenaid
rotary vegetable slicer with its four cones new in the box for eight bucks! It
will be fun to try--especially since my 25 year old Cuisinart is starting to
fall apart. I've heard that the old French made Cuisinarts lasted a lot longer
than the new ones and I'm not sure what to replace it with.

Congratulations on your find! I just replaced my old Cuisinart food
processor with a Kitchenaid that runs circles around anything else
I've ever seen. It has a mini-prep bowl, a second prep bowl and all
sorts of whippers, and slicers and pureers and stuff. Very cool.

I'm jealous. My Cuisinart is only 7 years old and showing no signs of
conking out, although the white plastic base has turned yellow. It
does everything I need it to do, including whip things with a beater
attachment, but still...I like all those extra prep bowls on your
Kitchenaid...

Today I used it to make pizza and foccaccia via Mark Bittman's recipe,
with the regular, not the dough blade. A snap.
