It's Eamonn... but I don't see a TM in the clip in the link... the clip has a chook house, and worms, but no TM?

Thanks for the correct spelling.  The clip is what was on tonight - our TMX will be on next week so I'm sure plenty of us will be watching.

In the clip for next week's show (shown at the end of tonight's show) Joh and Eamon are standing in his kitchen and she says to him "fast swimmer and fast cook" something like that and there's a shot of TM whirling away.

Here is next weeks show preview (they finally posted it on their website.) Eamon and TM are after the psycho moggy!!

nope it's still showing this weeks link.

i thought i could just see the rim of it in one shot

The clip is there - but you need to click on the link as above http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/?rn=1341467&cl=13855052&src=y7lifestyle&ch= (http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/?rn=1341467&cl=13855052&src=y7lifestyle&ch=)

But because it is one of those annoying Flash pages - you need to look down in the lower left hand corner and use the ^ buttons to bring Special Features into the highlighted region in centre.  Then when you look at the thumbnails you will see the second clip on the top line has Next Week on Better Homes and Gardens.  Click play and after the bad moggy you will definitely see him with a full Thermomix - not just a glimpse of a lid.

I hate Flash websites

Me too Thermomixer.  I'm lucky enough to have seen it on the telly.  Wonder if he is going to give us a demo as to what he can do in it - bet we are all going to be watching.  Just think, the ratings will soar for that program next week ;D ;D ;D
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: I Love Bimby! on June 13, 2009, 03:46:37 am
Thanks Thermomixer for clarrifying that. I had copied the link from next week's preview - but the silly flash thing just doesn't do what it should..  ;)
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: Rowyfo on June 13, 2009, 04:30:15 am
Aha! Thanks for the instructions, Thermomixer. :D That is definitely a TM... I think the other was a lip of a frying pan.

...Stupid website!

Wow, in The Australian last week and on Better Homes and Gardens next week. TMX will certainly become more widely known. It's kind of exciting, all our friends can go "Oh, there's that thing that ..........keeps raving about"  :-))

Did anyone happen to get the cheesecake recipe?  Once I heard the steaming I suddenly pricked up my ears but missed the rest of it  ???
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: I Love Bimby! on June 19, 2009, 12:25:13 pm
Thought the interview went well EXCEPT.... he called it a "food processor"  :o :o :o :o >:( - humph! He just lost points with me!!  ;) :D
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: faffa_70 on June 19, 2009, 12:31:22 pm
It's not been on here yet...will try and get it for you ILB
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: brazen20au on June 19, 2009, 12:40:41 pm
not sure if the recipe was actually on or just in the magazine. my ears pricked up too and the kids have requested it on the weekeend lol

yeah, i was a bit miffed he called it a thermomix, i'm guessing he was told to though by the BH&G people as otherwise he'd have to explain what a thermoimix was...
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: judydawn on June 19, 2009, 12:49:31 pm
I wrote the recipe down for the cheesecake and was going to suggest we could do it in the Varoma, maybe even little ones if a big one won't fit.  Where will I put it - in desserts?   I also was disappointed it was called a 'food processor' but they aren't going to advertise something without money changing hands are they?
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: brazen20au on June 19, 2009, 01:03:32 pm
yes desserts is perfect

did ya see all the uncle toby's lined up in the background?  :-)) :D

Thanks JD. 

Has anyone made the Black Bottomed, White Chocolate Cheesecake in the 09 calendar? That's steamed in the Varoma. And is lovely (VERY rich though).

AGREE! While getting DD back to sleep was thinking that it would have been an advertising thing - no name mention with out the $$$ to back it up. Pity!!!  Imagine the interest if he had named it and the flurry in internet searches!

havent seen it yet but HQ certainly cashed in on it being on bombarding with emails about it!! LOL....wonder if they are miffed they didnt mention it by name!
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: JaneeZee on June 19, 2009, 01:29:32 pm
Very disappointing he couldn't name it but I guess he is sponsored by Uncle Toby's not Thermomix!!  These are the commercial realities.....  :(  
We will all simply have to ask people if they saw our magic machines on the show anyway.........the people you haven't already bored to tears or green with jealousy that is!!!

Got the info email from HQ about 2 minutes before it aired here.  Maybe just a delay due to the mass mailing??  ???
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens

maybe HQ didnt know and only read it on this forum from last weeks thread!
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens

I got an email on Monday about it but nothing since then.............

seriously that had to be the most underrated segment they could have done on a Thermo, for all anyone else out there could know all it does it blitz things!!! OMG im so disappointed!  They did call it a food processor and really thats all it looked like it was!
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens
Post by: I Love Bimby! on June 19, 2009, 02:35:22 pm
Agree. I got a text msg from someone at work and they said "was that it???"
Title: Re: better homes and Gardens

I would like to see the programme. Any way someone can You Tube it?

You can view it at the link posted earlier.. at least I can, hopefully you don't have to be in Australia to see it.

Post by: Kathy on June 20, 2009, 02:05:23 am
very disappointing wasn't it!!! Did you see the Beetroot Salad on the table while they were eating???

And yes the line up of Uncle Tobys on the shelf saw that too. On the web site is the Beetroot Salad recipe but not for Thermomix it's got grate raw beetroot by hand!!!!

and we all know what a mess that makes  ;D ;D ;D ;D I bet they all wish they had a TMX even if they didn't promote it ;)

I've posted the recipe they did on the show in Mains - hope we are allowed to do this!  I love anything with the chermoula mix.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately us Europeans (and possibly many other countries) can't see the video. Sob Sob. I would have loved to have seen it. It'll end up on You Tube one day (hint, hint).

I just watched it online. I think he called it a "food processor" because he couldn't remember the correct name.  :-))
