Gosh , I do not post often - maybe a lack of confidence , but I can remember when I first got my TM31 6-7 years ago there was no recipes around then at all . This was the only place , no thermomix cook books . Forum thermomix is the best resource for recipes and great conversations . A great community of friendship and support . I learnt to make jam in my thermomix from here . Now blessed with aTM5 as well . It brings a smile to see people think nothing of having two new TM5's on their bench now . And yes life is so busy, my husband just said we all need to go to a quit place for a week , shock horror he works 24 /7 as a farmer holidays are a rare thing . Each day just seems to get busier. All of you are gems thank you so much for helping so many of us with recipes and a lot more .

Thank you Acookwoman might have to have that tomorrow night .

Wow Obbie just had a look at a Fudge kettle to see what you are talking about . What a great idea , imagine your fudge  will sell fast . You certainly keep busy .

I am sure TM31 will be ok . Lots of twin lambs and even a few triplets .

Well it was meant to be a quiet day at home ! We got in the ute to check the lambing ewes . Great idea lets go in the home paddock that has only had the motorbike in there as it is very wet . You guessed it bogged , there was that sinking feeling . Kids laughed , latter a tractor got the ute out and one very gown up DS 11 drove the ute out of the paddock . Then not so funny after 7 years or of having TM31 I drowned it , forgot to put the seal back on the lid . Lying on its back now . I'll leave it for 24 hrs or so . We did end up with lamb moussaka for dinner tonight . Which needed both Thermomix's going ,

Pesto pasta , made a double batch of pesto yesterday , three jars later . Nearly used one jar yesterday on pizzas . Love this with diced potato cooked in the pasta water . Did not have any Basil so just used lots of Parsley some coriander and a little kale . Nice and light .

DS had his last hockey game for the season today , it rained , poured for the whole game and was freezing . They all did a great job . A very wet boy drenched lucky he listened to me a brought spare clothes , even had a Towel in the car . Home very late . Dippy eggs for dinner , thanks chooks for 8 eggs today all eaten tonight . Let's hope DD game tomorrow is not a wet one .

Well yesterday I made they meatballs in tomato sauce , yum steamed potato and green veg . Then made the strawberry mouse for dessert , put into glasses that were free a few months ago when you brought Philly cream cheese at WW supermarket . Both off the basic chip . This morning minestrone soup , must remember not to chop up the veggies when using the chip , much nicer a bit chunky . No cereal left yeah . So Tenina's wild oat maple muesli huge container that will be devoured by DDAnd DS this weekend with yogurt . Off to make Lemon and Coconut Dahl for dinner .
