Quick ladies while I have a coffee! I am at the shops and Coles have a pizza maker for $29. Worth it you think?

I don't know if it is at all Coles, but at the Castle Hill Coles they had a stand with lots of books for $5 each. I got Marion Grasby's cookbook - and they had heaps!
Don't know if she would be too impressed with being in the bargin bin already!

I know there are a few of you out there that like these free promotional things like me!
I was at Woolworths today and they have a promo on Philly cheese. Buy 3 Philly products and you get a free pack including a little cookbook with recipes by Suzanne Gibbs, Louise Fulton Keats and Kate Gibbs (Margaret Fultons daughter and grand daughters), an oven mitt and a silicone spatula.
It is in the online catalogue too.

I was just looking at the yourhomedepot site. They sell a blade and jug set for the TC - just under $90. Wish the TMX jug set was a bit more affordable (or should I say......justifiable to DH).

Thermochef, now Bellini......you can bet Aldi will have one in there range sooner or later. And then my MIL will get one....she has just about every Aldi product known to man. Its a good thing they have a caravan to put some of it in!
I had to laugh though......she was using a vacuum sealer the other week and I asked her how she found it, and she said it was fantastic, but she is on her 3rd machine......if it was any other brand she would be saying she would never buy anything made by them ever again. She has Aldi coarsing through her veins! Each birthday and Christmas you just wonder what is coming from Aldi. For Christmas last year they gave us a 2 burner BBQ.....they know we have 2 4 burner BBQs! You should have heard my husband putting it together...bending frame, holes that didn't line up properly....it was hilarious!
I am not anti-Aldi, but my MIL drives us a bit crazy with her Aldi addiction.
Sorry......I digress

There is really only one other spot I could try..........might think about how to rearrange things and test it out.

I spotted a TMX in the background of MKR tonight. We had recorded it, and were watching and DH paused it for some other reason, and there it was on the bench in the background. They were cooking in B&B kitchens in the Blue Mountains - it was the Tassie team.

Happens to me too! Our's is something to do with the structure of the bench I think. If I push down on the bench it will change the weight. SO I particularly have to be careful with weighing things like Baker's flour if I have the big bag, to not rest it on the bench, or put it on the bench and then set the scales.

 why did I not think of using cytobrushes!!?? I am a cytologist after all.......... I am on maternity leave though so might have to call into work for a random visit, though that involves dodging the "when are you coming back?" questions..........

Hally, maybe you could try wrapping it in a plastic bag with something nice smelling? Like a perfume tester strip that you like......or some vanilla on paper towel....
Hope the fresh air sorts it out! Sounds like that courier had something noxious happen in the back of his van!

I try to make one new recipe a week. Doesn't always happen though!
My kids like the creamy tomato and salami fettucini in the EDC, the ricotta gnocchi is easy as and goes well with the bolognese (which I have to make weekily for my kids). Beef stroganoff is good too.
And if you have Tenina's Dinner Spinner, then her Vietnamese shredded chicken salad is good and it is a great technique to try. I made it for DH and I, but I think it might not have been accepable for the kids just yet (though easily adaptable). But the technique is great! So much shredded chicken for lunch the following day!

You could use it in Gozleme, or it is good on just normal pizza too.
Tenina's tart was very nice - my DH is not a fan of fetta though so he wasn't a fan, but I have ideas one a DH styled one with bacon. Anything with bacon is a winner with him!
Tenina also uses fetta in her nachos recipe. Though watchout for the cayene pepper - DH requested I dial back on the 1 Tbl to 1/2 Tbl next time - he had his with normal grated cheese.
It is lovely tasting and visually sprinkled on the top of beetroot salad.
