Speaking of KitchenAid mixers...
Late last night while window shopping in one of my favorite ebay categories, collectibles/kitchen&home/kitchenware/small appliances, I came across this vintage ice cream freezer attachment. Advertised as "missing hand crank" ??? for $39.95 + $8.95 shipping (looks very heavy) I decided to buy it. I've seen these sell for well over $100 and most of them really showed their age. This one appears to have seen little use.
Even though I have a K5A mixer I purchased new in the 70's ($2.50 at a warehouse sale at my then department store employer after a fellow buyer took a slightly illegal markdown) I doubt I will ever use this attachment. I already have one of those Simac refrigerated ice cream makers and another one that fits on the Foodmatic. Being a chronic impulse shopper* I couldn't help myself.
*Lilly Tomlin, talking about addictions, once said "I was a impulse shopper, thee worst kind. I would buy anything on the shelf at eye-level. I would even buy fresh bread and day-old bread the same day. I was just not using good sense."
