The KitchenAid mixer? Sizeable. About a foot high, a foot deep and 6 or 7 inches wide. Wider if you store the bowl in it. It’s VERY heavy. Not easy to lift, at least for me. And like I said earlier—very expensive–never would have purchased in a million years if it was up to me. But now…honestly…I very much recommend it. As Darklight illuded to good pasta and good breads are very expensive…it pays for itself eventually.
 
Also keep checking. Occasionally you will find them on a huge sale. Not frequently, but occasionally.
 
We lucked out because one of my wife’s college roommates (who loved to cook) was joining a convent shortly after we got married. Thus she was giving away all her earthly possessions, including her Kitchen Aid. It is very handy.

Oh! Definitely, do my carrot/ground beef trick. It healthy things up quite a bit.

Spaghetti squash in place of pasta, especially with chicken and alfredo sauce.

Get this Award Winning Cheese | Cabot Creamery it’s sometimes hard to find locally, but if you do, it’s AMAZING. Boil cauliflower, chop, couple tablespoons of that, a pinch of garlic and onion salt and a tablespoon of butter. It’s very similar to the box powder but with cauliflower over pasta it’s super duper healthy.

Cheese chips (literal cheese in the oven crisped) with hummus is very healthy, too.
 
Oooo I’ll have to try the cheese chips! I’m actually not terribly fond of ground beef, but I imagine a veggie chili could do the same thing. I don’t really eat a lot of meat anymore. Lent almost feels like cheating now.
 
Hey! We’re talking shoes here 🤨 How did food get involved 😋

Not worried about the cost so much as the size.
 
All this reminds me of the (local Australian interstate) joke “Why do Queenslanders wear thongs?”

“Because they don’t know how to tie their shoelaces.”

Didya’ know…

You can put your running shoes in the washer. (Last Resort)

Wet Wipes clean up shoes miraculously.

Armor All can restore the luster of synthetic shoe material.

Mink Oil can restore and protect suede shoes.

Apply “NeverWet Fabric” to shoes to have them water proof.

I’ll remember that about the Armor all,thanks!
 
An unashamedly blatant plug for Australia Day, depending on which Council you live in

In other words, their thongs are shoelaces? (Sorry to be so dense, I must belong in Queensland.)

I’m not crazy about shoes. I’m more of a flashlight man.

Thongs are flip-flops with only the scant fabric or plastic that goes between the big toe and the next one. I’m in New England and we use this term to differentiate between footwear that is acceptable in semi-casual situations (like full strap sandals) and that is not (like flip-flops)
 
Thank you for pointing that out. I had something else in mind when I heard the word “thongs”. 😊 Thus the joke didn’t make sense to me.

I was, in retrospect, all too willing to believe Australian men wear thongs (i.e. g-strings) to the beach!
 
I guess I was imagining something like Borat’s mankini. (If I knew how to insert an image, I would, but I don’t.)
