Hello from sunny Perth :)
« on: April 25, 2013, 09:20:27 am »
Hello, hello....

Expecting my Thermomix next month.....and sooooo excited already!

Just a short intro. I'm a busy mummy of 3 super active boys. Days and weekends are always frantic - shuttling them around, preparing for meals, grocery shopping etc etc etc. And constantly feeling guilty for feeding them junk for afternoon tea. Hoping that my Thermomix will fix that  :)

Looking forward to making new friends in this fab forum  ;)

Cheers!

Welcome BZB. I'm also from Perth, home of the lousy weather.
Goldfish is certainly correct, you will be whizzing up healthy goodies in no time. Waiting for your machine is very hard. Spend the time planning and if you need to, shopping.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Hi BZB, welcome to the forum.  You are going to have the best fun with your Thermomix and your boy's tummies will always be full.  You have time to get some recipes together, get the ingredients in and be ready to go once you've had your delivery demo - make the most of this time.

Hi BZB, I've had mine 48 hours and am loving it! you'll be amazed at how quickly everything gets done compared to normal cooking time.
My DD3 is loving the chocolate custard, bread rolls and pikelets that I've made so far. I hope the time before you get yours goes quickly for you  :)

Hi BZB and welcome. Yes it's easy to whip up afternoon tea, but hard trying not to eat it :D  Hoping time flies and your tmx arrives soon.

Hi BZB!
Although a month seems like a really long time, it should give you enough tine to make a super grocery list and use up a lot of prepackaged foods that you may not need when you get your TMX. I've found that it its so easy to whip up foods that I hardly use any processes foods now. Happy waiting!
I have a Facebook page with all things cooking, you'll find it here: https://www.facebook.com/What-Amber-Ate-1097437023601587/

Welcome to the BZB. There is a children's section in recipes which might give you some ideas for afternoon tea.

Wow, wow, wow...!

What a warm welcome  :D

Thanks everyone. I'm guessing I will be loving my Thermomix and hanging out in this forum.

Hmmm...what appliances can I get rid of in the meantime... I think I will hang on to my KitchenAid and clean out everything else?? What a lovely problem to have :)

Don't get rid of anything BZB. There is a thread some where here that addresses this. Looked up to page 47 and couldn't find it.
Don't go near the shopping thread, you will end up with appliances and kitchen gear you never knew you needed.  ;D
