You may have heard that Connor and Kevin broke my beloved mixer while making sugar cookies this weekend. Kevin decided to take care of it for me, and I'm still bugging out about how this all went down.
First, he sent an e-mail to the company about the broken mixer (using my e-mail account).
Then, we received a standard response from the company directing us to repair the mixer.

Next, Kevin sent a stern reply to the company telling them that fixing the mixer at our own inconvenience was not so convenient.
Dear Manuel:
I'm terribly sorry that we cannot maintain a business relationship. I'll be taking my business elsewhere unless you send me a free replacement Sunbeam 3156 or similar.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Julie
Finally, I get two messages from the company, one informing me that I will be receiving a new mixer for free, and a second one with a shipment confirmation.

Seriously. My husband can move mountains.

That's awesome!
However, in this situation, I would have tried to convince my husband I needed a stand mixer. :) I love my kitchen aid for cookie making.
Yes, there was a brief period of me (not so quietly) hinting that I wanted a red or pink kitchenaide for Valentine's Day...but he weaseled his way out of that one...
