we moved the fish tank to the bathroom to make room for the mixer, but there wasn't enough clearance with the cabinets so we ended up getting this kitchen cart from ikea for $60. i actually have space for food prep now. woo hoo! i'm very proud of myself for only shredding one of the screws in the process of putting this together. ikea must have had a lot of confidence in my abilities to piece things together because they decided not to include instructions in the box i got. luckily, there are some ikea fans out there, and we were able to find a pdf online.

i need a better place for the sewing machine though. it doesn't quite fit upright on either shelves on this thing.
