I spend a fair amount of time in the kitchen cooking meals and baking treats for my family. The Braun MultiQuick Immersion hand blender has come in pretty handy the past few weeks. I used the food processor attachement to ground some graham crackers and toasted almonds for a pie crust, the hand blender came in hany make a gravy and the whisk was very handy making  a pie filling. I like not having to pull out several different appliances when I can just pull out one.
