Well I did ponder for a little, before joining this morning.
I didn't have all the Ebooks, so that is a bonus, along with the cooking class booklets.
I find the club easy to navigate around, love the menu builder for saving her recipes into categories, and receiving the exclusive recipes.
I have always been a fan of Tenina's inventive recipes.  You know they are original & not just tweaked copies pulled from the net somewhere.
Happy with my purchase.

To clarify, I mean Thermomix FB pages/groups all now ultimately seem to want sell you a cook book/booklet.
I have just seen a newish one pop up.

I think there's many Ladies here that could put their own book out...eg. Chookie's bread book.

My thoughts are, what a great group this one is...freely giving all theirs for free  ;)

Arghhh...another thermomix "recipe developer" Cook book for sale online.
Honestly, it seems the days of sharing our recipes on a free forum are done...this saddens me.
It's all about the $$ so it seems  >:(

P.S...not a shot at Tenina...she is the pioneer

Not regretting being a hoarder  :P

I dragged out this 16 year old dresser from the cubby house on Saturday...which my Daughter served me "tea" from, all those years ago.
Washed off the mouse poop, and painted it that morning, for a candle prop in the afternoon.
Told Hubby everything I hoard, is justified one day  ;)

I can't remember how to post recipe links here sorry...but tick of Yums Devils food cake...omg...delish!
Made a triple layer cake for Mother on Mothers Day.
Despite the sugar content, it wasn't overly sweet.
Iced with strawberry buttercream.

I made some lactose free yoghurt - well actually made it yesterday and let it incubate over night - woke up to delicious creamy yoghurt this morning! i am really pleased with the result, and all 4 girls said it was yum  ;D ;D

Which recipe did you use please Astarra?
I'm looking @ the coconut yoghurt for my girl atm on RC (I love it, but she doesn't)

Our wood fire is cactus...the choices were ugly or uglier *sigh*
I picked this fire (only one to fit the space) but in black.
We have to replace & extend the tile surrounds, and I'm so undecided on what to pick!
I know once it's done, I can't change my mind..like I do...so the fire is still in its box & we're freezing lol

Yes, you "need" one Julie  ;)
Agree with what Jam said...quick & easy to use, especially for the kids making their breakfast smoothies, wash up a breeze & very powerful.
I went for the ninja slim, as I had a very limited space left beside the TM.
I picked it up from Woolies for $89 I think.  Came with 1 blade attachment, but 2 cups with spill proof lids.

Wonder....the attachment was in the Chinese noodle kit (flat wide disk).
I would say I would use this one the most.  The fettuccine disk that comes with the machine, I would class more as spaghetti size.

Lol...yes, don't blame me if it goes bad  ;)
...was over a period of time since I last was here but...think I'd divorce myself otherwise  :P
Forgot to mention, I paid for the pre-order of Tenina's new book, which I'm really excited about!

There was also a vintage meat slicer



And today I bought my own Mother's Day present.
Milk glass cake stands...1 large pink, 1 medium & 1 small jade.
Think they'll look gorgeous in a sweets vignette  ;)

Chit Chat / Electric pasta machines

Thought I would create this thread, for those that don't access pasta groups on facebook.
I am still happily using my Philips pasta machine regularly, and the bonus is how quick it is!
I have recently purchased the thinner wonton/dumpling attachment...but yet to try it out.  Hopefully soon.

My favourite to date, is the curry pasta.
Removed 2 Tbsp. flour & replaced with 2 Tbsp. babas meat curry powder.
You could add even more for a nice bite.



I had lots of zucchini given to me,so I added the skins to the ninja with a little water, and strained, and used the juice for the pasta.





Carrot juice



Black pepper



Beetroot
