To celebrate the 21st book in Lynsay Sands’ Argeneau series, The Immortal Who Loved Me, Avon asked if they could give away a 4.5 quart Kitchen Aid standing mixer here at the hot pink palace.
Like I would say no to anything that involved the remote possibility of baked goods, right?
Why baked goods? As Caro, the lovely publicists who came up with this buttery idea wrote to me, “Since the heroine, Sherry Carne, owns a kitchen goods store, I thought it’d be fun to give away a fancy KitchenAid stand mixer, because honestly, who doesn’t want one of those? It’s like the Cadillac of cookie equipment.” She’s not wrong – I have one, and I use it all the time. So let’s get to it, eh?
The grand prize is an Ultra Power® Series 4.5-Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer from KitchenAid, in the winner’s choice of color – and this thing comes in red, green, blue, pink, yellow, and something that looks a lot like Tiffany blue – it’s kind of amazing.
Ahoy, widget!

I’d make cupcakes for my daughter and then get her to make me cookies. She doesn’t like nuts, so there won’t be any if she’s making them.
Lyndsay Rocks! I love this series. I also have always wanted one of these mixers!
My mom’s sugar cookie recipe. They are awesome! But it takes a powerful mixer. Thanks for the giveaway!
IF I won Id love to make a cheesecake. Maybe a white chocolate raspberry cheesecake.

I have been wanting one of those mixers for a while now! If I were lucky enough to win one, I think I would first bake a batch of cookies then a cake..I would most likely bake anything that I had a recipe for. I could see myself baking the day way.
This would be perfect for my partner, he has always wanted one. We could finally try to make those cinnamon rolls we’ve been craving.Crossing my fingers!

I’d love to make our family’s traditional birthday, chocolate angel food cake with chocolate whipped cream frosting. This would make the recipe quick and easy. I have two birthdays in March, my grandson will turn 1 and my daughter 32! (12th and 22nd)
