Introduce Yourself / Re: Arli in Perth

I used to make bread in my bread maker all the time when I first bought it (I think it was when they first came out LOL) and it does get a revival from time to time, but its really not that convenient, and the bread isnt all that much to rave about. Cant wait to try out the TM.

Now I have a forum question I'm hoping someone can help me with.... how do you guys save your fav recipe/topic/chat links? Its a little bit more basic here than I'm used to and for the life of me cant work it out. I've found the notification button and where I can find those threads, but is that the easiest way?

And, how do some of you save your recipes you find and fall in love with on here, do you just transpose them to a word or note file and save?  Sorry I know this seems like silly questions, maybe its due to brain damage due to todays heat LOl.

Thanks everyone

Oh my, I am totally over whelmed and overawed now. What a huge list of everything I want to try now.

 :D Thanks everyone for the lovely welcome.

Thanks Judy for the links to the fav lists. I popped in to the local IGA today and nearly died at how packed it was with people doing their last minute Australia Day BBQ shopping LOL. I turned around and left again.

I thiink I need to apologise to my DD, she's not so bad all the time, but she definatley can be when she's on a roll, and her school work is suffering a little. Actually it was my daughter that put me onto the thermomix. She had stayed at her BF house one night and came home telling me all about this little machine. Then there is a family friends farm she sometimes visits with various family members, and they have one going all the time too. (Actually she's there this week horseriding, poor kid in this heat). So she's been telling me how everyone uses it all the time. I can see us fighting over who is going to make what.

But I can see nothing but benefits ahead, even if my purse is a little lighter for it ;)

Introduce Yourself / Arli in Perth

Hi everyone, I'm Arli.

I live in the northern suburbs of Perth with my daughter.

I've been eyeing off the TM for a long time now but had never seen it in action. Until 2 days ago I was going to opt for the TC instead. But..... I went to my first TM demo last night and signed up for one then and there. Grabbed a couple of extra recipe books to boot.

Now I just need to wait for my machine and will grab some friends around for a demo in a week or two. I cant wait to try it out, just wish I had my hands on the Everyday book first so I know what to stock my cupboard with first, otherwise I'll be sitting here with a machine and nothing to make with it.

I'm really looking forward to cutting down on the take away meals each week, and get back to healthy cooking again, which has gone out the window since I'm so time poor.It's not unusual for us to eat at 7.30pm which has got to stop. Also hoping the reduction in additives will return my daughter back to me, who is doing a pretty good impersonation of a grumpy teen, when she's only 10. Now if only the Thermie had a delay start function it would be even better ;)

Anyway, that's where this forum is going to come in handy. Its Australia Day, so I am going to kick back, check out some recipes and work out what the first things I am going to make are. Just wish I still had a herb garden, so I guess I'll be off to Bunnings to start a new one.

Hope to chat to some of you soon.
