Anyone who loves their cooking appliances knows KitchenAid takes the stand mixer to a new level.  It’s numero uno, top notch, cadillac supreme, blue ribbon, first class, peachy keen, stellar, boss…. you get what I’m getting at.  IT’S A FINE PIECE OF MACHINERY!

This past Wednesday I found myself among a slew of talented creative bloggers at a event hosted by none other than The White on Rice Couple and KitchenAid.

A.)  I was completely thrilled to be invited, and meet many of my blogging peers that I had never acquainted in person.

B.)  Joy the Baker and Cristina Ferrare gave cooking demonstrations along with their new cookbooks, something I really enjoyed observing.

C.)  I got to play with the new shiny KitchenAid toys!

Here is a pocket-sized photo documentary run down of the day:

Todd and Diane sharing their journey through videos, photographs and their heartfelt storytelling.  There was not a dry eye in the house.  In simple words, they are genuinely caring people and that translates through their work.

The team posing before the kitchen went into full swing.  From L to R: Todd Porter, Joy the Baker, Cristina Ferrare, Diane Cu, Rachel Barbarotta, and Alex Ferrare.

Lunch:

White on Rice Couple made all the food and it was goody-goody yum-drops.  Click here for the Spicy Sriracha White Bean Dip recipe.  I’m waiting for them to post their Chicken salad recipe…. Any day Todd and Diane. 🙂

Then last but not least:  Joy the Baker taught us all how to make marshmallow frosting.  She was very sweet and so were the cupcakes.
