Greetings to the fabulous Leolady
Greetings and welcome to Leolady, legend of the Kitchenaid forums.
This home-schooled scholar of KA arcana was for years a valuable resource to hundreds of enthusiasts at that site. The homework she did for free established a textbook library of vintage Kitchenaid stand mixers from the brand's beginnings to the present. The experts on the KA payroll routinely referred questions to her, knowing she was better-schooled than they, and always willing to share her know-how with grace and good humor to fellow obsessives and rank newcomers alike.
Devotees of the Fresh Loaf are lucky to have Leolady among them. Please join me in welcoming her and in thanking her for showing up here.

And I outed her! LOL
We are very lucky to have her. I kept running into posts on the KA site where she was able to help me decide on a Hobart or other mixer for my new gear needs. And I hope I will continue to gleen more knowledge from her as I await my new to me Hobart N-50. With so many choices out there and so few people with adequate knowledge, it's a gift to have someone really know something and who is willing to help others out!
Welcome Leolady!
Thank you so very very much for the big welcome. I am overwhelmed and joyous. I didn't know that anybody knew me outside of the KA forum.
I will do whatever I can to help with what I know, if you will help me learn to bake bread. Again thank you!
I know Leolady from the Discuss Cooking forum. I am so glad to see you here (and thank's for the PM, I've responded).
Leolady, I'm so delighted to see you here on TFL!
BTW, she knows mucho about all sorts of kitchen gear and appliances. She gave me very sage advice many years ago when I wanted to get a good quality rolling pin (I learned a bunch from her).
Leolady, I never knew you were *the* expert on KA.
Welcome, welcome, welcome. Your reputation preceeds you.
best
