Your KitchenAid Color Horoscope
Over the holidays I went over to my friend Jill's house for the first time. When I entered her kitchen I immediately exclaimed, "You have a GRAPE KitchenAid mixer!" Yes, I may be a little bit insane, but this was one of the highlights of the holiday season for me. You see, other people go to friends' houses and secretly peek in their medicine cabinets. Me, I stroll into the kitchen and check out the color of KitchenAid mixer the person has. This one detail speaks volumes about a person.
Now a grape KitchenAid mixer is truly extraordinary. Not many people can pull this off. Grape says that the owner is bold, daring, and perhaps a little bit quirky. And most of all, cool. Very, very cool.
I personally lust after the grape KitchenAid mixer. I would probably never have it, but I want it. I want to be that cool. Instead, I have a cobalt KitchenAid mixer, and it is a prized possession, if not a little bit basic. Cobalt is like having a black or white one, but with a little bit more charm. A person with a cobalt mixer wants the splash of color, but is afraid of going too far.
People with black or white mixers have classic sensabilities. They are generally not making a style statement with their mixer. It may blend in with the kitchen, or it may fit a somewhat austere black and white décor. Or, perhaps they just got it as a gift and the gift giver didn't know what color to get!
People with the newer chrome and other metallic models, probably have modern kitchens, filled with stainless-steel appliances. These people tend to be quite stylish, and often clean-cut.
But, it's those people with actual colors, like grape, that really make a commitment to their sense of style. Grape, tangerine, ice, wasabi (!)--these people have it going on.
What's your KitchenAid color profile?

I am noticing that a lot of people, on line, want the Kitchenaid grape stand mixer. I also wanted the empress green stand mixer. Do you think if enough of us wrote Kitchenaid that they would bring the grape color back? I cook a lot for my writing club, and I have the french blue and the grass green, but my favorite color is purple, and I want the grape one so bad, I can taste it.
what do you think?

I am so close to buying the metallic artisan in brushed nickel, I love stainless steel and would hope for the mixer to blend while standing out a bit (since it costs as much as a fridge or my car?!!! LOL) But I am afraid to commit to a bold color, and the metallic chrome is nice, but I want my kitchen to look put together where ever I move.
So I would love to hear your opinion if you've seen the silver/gray/nickel models in a home or in person. I haven't had the pleasure of seeing either in person

I have pink one. A mixer, blender and processor.
They have so many great colors, but when I saw it in pink -I was sold. And no, it doesn't look like Barbie's kitchen.:-)
