There is a "story" about our food mill, and all the hoopla that has come because of it....but, that was one thing I wasn't giving up and mrs w had possession of it, but I got her to return it.....and told her that it was mine when she handed it back to me.....it has never left my possession since....:)

I used to have one of those. I used it for several things, like grinding gizzards/liver, for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I also used it to grind cranberries for both holidays, as well. I don’t have it anymore though. My Cuisinart food processor took it’s place. I also have one of those strainers with the pointed pestle, like @Baymule has.

.....the other day, she got a stick and debarked it and she will walk....well, trot....with it in her mouth....she does this all around the perimeter that isn't grown over.....she does this many times a day and it dawned on me today that it reminded me of Abraham and his staff......after he separated from Lot.....and the Father gave him all the land he could see....I just wonder if she is "claiming" her property......spreading her "staff" over it.....:p.....she is one crazy girl, I tell ya.....:)...:love

Not sure how old this meat grinder/mixer is. (many manufacturers called them a meat mincer in the early part of the 20th century)
My mother was using it in the mid to late 50s, but she may have had it longer than that.. I've used it a few times, but the hopper is pretty small.

My favorite 'mixer' is still this one from the 40s and is in perfect working order and I use it quite a bit.
