I was making yet another batch of No-fails and during the part of adding the dry ingredients my mixer was chugging away. I dropped a tip on the floor and it rolled under the fridge. I went down to retrieve it (on my hands and knees) and I looked up in time to see the Kitchen Aid coming for me--it walked across the counter top and was half way off! icon_surprised.gif

The only thought that went through my head was "If I am going to die, how will my family explain it?" icon_biggrin.gif It was a cookie accident?

icon_surprised.gif Weird! And scary! I've never had anything like that happen with mine. It always behaves itself very well. Glad you didn't get hurt!

Oh, my gosh, I'm sorry, I don't mean to laugh but I am LAUGHING OUT LOUD reading this (and the responses). I'm trying to picture any one of us on our hands and knees searching for a tip, only to have our dearly beloved KITCHEN AID MIXER trying to attack us. TOTALLY UNWARRANTED, I say, with as kind as we have been to our dear mixer. Although, maybe the mixer is trying to get revenge for all the months and even years of hard work we have put it through. IT'S HAD ENOUGH AND IT'S NOT TAKING IT A-N-Y M-O-R-E. !!!

I am so glad you did not get hurt. That thing could have done some serious damage had it fallen on you. icon_sad.gif

That's scary! icon_eek.gif

I'm glad you weren't hurt, and that you can laugh about it now.

Whenever I use my KitchenAid mixer or my food processor, I put it on a square of nonslip drawer liner. (The same stuff I put in the cake carrier under the cake board.) It seems to do a good job of preventing appliance travel.

My son would get the mixer since if I did survive he informed me he would put me in the "good home" That was so sweet. icon_lol.gif

That is very scary but funny at the same time. When mine is full, it makes this weird noise and shakes a tad but it has never tried to walk away.
