Today I used my new KitchenAid that Mom and Dad gave me for Christmas for the first time. I made a batch of chocolate chip cookies to see how it would handle the load. I couldn't believe how easy it was! I'll never make them any other way. The cookie dough looked so good that I had to give it a try. It was fantastic. 
I needed a second opinion before I posted on my blog that I'd just made the world's best cookies in my new KitchenAid, so I found a volunteer to test them. I sweetened the deal a little bit and made an icecream sandwich with 2 of the cookies.
Keith gave the cookies two thumbs up.
Here is our TiVo in its new home - in our new TV stand. (More pics to come soon of the furniture we bought this weekend. I'll show you everything once we have things set up and put together. It's all Ikea stuff, so it might take us a little while! :) )
Here's an example of what TiVo has saved for us so far. It's a funny mix of things. I'm going to go watch my newly saved episodes of Medium and What Not to Wear now.
Thanks again for the presents Mom and Dad! We love them!

Just how far did you need to twist Keith's arm for that?
I'm so excited to try out my Kitchenaid, too.
When I used my Kitchenaid for the first time (actually it was Keith who used it for the first time!), I was just like you! I couldn't believe how easily it can stir up a batch of cookies! It completely changes cookie-making! No more "slaving in the kitchen!" Now there's no excuse to not have fresh home made cookies! :) I'm glad you are enjoying it!
Ah, yes...Tivo. What would life be like without it? I can't ever watch TV again without the wonderful invention of the DVR. I don't even watch live TV anymore. If if find myself watching live TV and I can't fast forward through the commercials, I pause the show and walk away. There's always something I should be doing anyway.
I am glad you two like your gifts.
