Aussie living in Switzerland and new to Thermomix

[chdv]

JD's post has my total support chdv - the amazement of thermie is perpetual!   

I know and it's still up there on my list of the best kitchen machine available. But, for the next model, I hope they're developing a machine with internet access and a usb port, with a screen that displays recipes, blinking when I have to go to the next step. Or better still I'd like it to talk to me.

but now ok, enough dreaming. Time to go pack for a digestive diseases conference in Chicago.

BTW, this is a great forum, thanks for your help and support everyone!

You may be dreaming chdv but it wouldn't be a bad idea 
Have a great trip to Chicago.

that would be nice and yes have a great trip even if it is for work

Trip to the US was great. DDW (Digestive Diseases Week) in Chicago was impressive, there were close to 20,000 people there. After the conference I tripped around a bit, and caught up with my son, a couple of dear old friends and our baby-sitter/au pair (who's like my sister/daughter). BUT, it was so nice to come back home to my TM (and my husband and my girls!).

Frozzie, were you able to order the Taste of Asia cookbook? I think I saw it mentioned , but now that I want to order one, I can't find the details!

I'm adding a photo of the bean in Chicago

Cheryl, I wonder if our Mall's Balls in Adelaide, South Australia are related to the Bean in Chicago.

hehe, Judy, perhaps Anish Kapoor visited Rundle Mall and got his inspiration from the "Malls Balls"

Hey JD, you need to run down there and wave to us - there is a live webcam set up there.

  You'd see me but I wouldn't be able to see you though Nay-nay, that wouldn't be much fun.
