What a nice hubby you do have, the mixer looks great! And a pretty pink set, very sexy looking, as well as lovely dishes, and some pretty girly stuff! Looks like you hit the jackpot.

Have a wonderful Christmas day! Janice

Thanks Janice
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas too. Here it's 4.20am on Christmas morning. It is our family tradition to stay up on Christmas Eve, wait up till midnight and open all our presents. We only got home from my parents house a while ago and i just can't get to sleep. Im like a little kid. Im going to *have* to bake something this week icon_wink.gif.
The pink slippers and nighly along with the footworks kit was from my sister, i really really needed those. The dishes are from a friend, in green my favourite colour, they are sooooo pretty, and the perfume and make up is from my mum and dad. I just realised i have an unopened present in the car!!! OOOOOH, it's cold now, so i wont go and get it, i can't believe i forgot it was there. YAY, i've got something to open when i wake later on today!!!
hehehehehehe

Nati you must have been good icon_smile.gif what kind of mixer did you get?

We opened our presents just after midnight basically because I couldn't wait until morning (and we were awake anyway) we had some parcels sent up from family and it was killing me not to open them until Christmas. I didn't get a mixer but I did get some good stuff including 4 cake books and some cake tins.

Merry Christmas & enjoy your pressies

I got a Wizz Mix Professional by Breville
http://www.breville.com.au/products_detail.asp?prod=310
From what i can tell it's only just been released. I went to Myer(Grace Bros) a few weeks back and saw it, it comes in a few diff colours. I came home and told hubby i was going to buy one (I have a huge 20 litre (20 quart) mixer for huge batches of cake but when i have to make one or two mixes it's just too big. So i have had a few small mixers that i've managed to kill within 6 months, when the last one past away a few weeks ago i decided i was going to get something more powerful. I didnt want to spend $1000 on a Kenwood, since i had already spent double that on the huge one, this one seemed like a good one. Sooooo icon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gif

I got Celebration Cakes (Karen Goble), Storybook Cakes (Lindy Smith), Quick and Easy Celebration Cakes (Joanna Farrow) and Celebrate with a cake (Lindy Smith) although I already had the last one so am going to see if it is possible to exchange it.

Santa was good to me as well. I got a bottle of perfume cause thats my husbands dads favorite gifts to give. We also forgot to open one so we will be opening that today when he comes over. I also got a DB purse and walet which I know cost my husband alot. We also got a fire place (one that plugs into the wall but looks real) and a new digital camera. I also got tons of shirts and new shoes. And this weekend I will be going to Hobbylobby to spend the money I got.

Fantastic presents, although im not familiar with Elaine McGregor, i googled the name and found an organic grower, but not DVDs. Incidentally both mum and I have pasta machines and on Christmas day after our late night on Christmas eve, i made homemade pasta, but i did it the way my granny used to, without a machine and all cut by hand. I was inspired : ) Mum made the sauce, it was delicious!!!!

I've got Storybook Cakes, it's really cool!! If you can't exchange the last book im sure you can sell it on eBay, books like that always fetch good prices, but wait until the holidays are over icon_biggrin.gif

Ohhhh I got a Spotlight voucher, they had a sale on Wednesday so it has now been translated into a lazy susan that I will use as a turn-table, a variety of tips, a small clay gun thingy, some boards, and a other cakey stuff that escapes me cause I'm at work and now I've put myself on the spot I can't remember half of it! But it was like two bags worth of stuff icon_biggrin.gif

Also an Ikea voucher, woohoo! And I also have $70 worth of coles/myer vouchers from the flybuys deal this year..... so shop, shop, shopping watch out!

Also one of my friends gave me a very beautiful two tiered stand, it's square the plates are white and the handle and middle are in silver. She added some of those flexible individual cupcake moulds, is there a trick to baking with them? Do you just put them on a tray?

Nicole
Just realised no one answered this question. Im sorry to say i dont have any of those, so im not sure. I would assume you'd need a cookie tray or something as they are very floppy and you may end up with a warped cake or cake all over the floor icon_cry.gif
