First a little history into my mixing bowl. I believe I bought this bowl in 1981. I was living in England at the time and this was way before the internet, cable, and inexpensive phone calls. I lived for my mail. I used to order any and everything that was either cheap or free. I saved everything from Kool-Aid packets to Bisquick box tops. I could not tell you how many boxes of Bisquick I had to purchase to get this bowl, but I loved it from the first time I opened the box. The funny thing is I stopped using Bisquick when I returned to the States.
I have used this bowl for mixing every delicious recipe that has ever passed through my kitchen. It has a very special place in my heart. The kids used it to help bake cakes when they were little. I look at this bowl and smile, because I don't just see an old yellow mixing bowl (missing the little rubber ring on the bottom), but rather a bowl that helped to bake up lots of happy memories. I am sure this bowl has been a part of thousands of chocolate chip cookies and more pans of brownies and cakes than I can remember. I call this my Little Bowl of Happiness.
