I have just received a Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer from a friend as a gift and it is gorgeous. I would like to know what are some creative ways to make this machine useful at my house. (Assumming no attachment is involved, just the three beaters: flat, wire whip, and dough hook)
Thanks you so much for your input!
 
just use it as much as you can with recipes that you would use your hand mixer. you will find that your cakes will be lighter and whipped cream and merangues will be higher as well as just a few ideas. the more you use it the more familiar you will become. it is awesome for home made breads and virtualy eliminates hand kneading of bread dough. The more you use the more you'll want attachments for it like the ice cream bowl, meat grinder and pasta machine, etc. I use mine all the time and even got a small commercial unit for bigger cooking tasks. My wife doesnt cook much but loves using it and has cooked more because of the kitchen aid. make sure you get yourself some rubber spatulas and a couple bowl scrapers they will help you tremendously.
