Oh funny, I've had a really quick flick through a few of the recipes and here's a couple of things that made me giggle...
3 smashed bananas ... must be my sense of humour - but was wondering what those poor bananas were drinking to get smashed
black, brown and white chocolate... guess that covers all of the colours
3/4 bowl cocoa -  ???
add milk to thicken the mixture at the end...  ???

Wonder who taste tested the recipes once they were done...and if they are still alive to give the final verdict!

I am really looking forward to sitting down and reading this through.
 Cheers,
Nikki.

Rara.   I don't know how to attach a file to a PM.  I had to email it to Nikki.

I haev just looked in my UK Fast and Easy book and the bread recipes are an exact copy of recipes in that book...even so much as they have even copied the lead in paragraph...for example

Chollah Many thanks to my friend Sigal Ivry for this recipe.She regularly impresses all her friends byserving home-made chollah bread made in herThermomix. It’s a lovely start to the Sabbath

That is exactly what is in the UK book!!!!

Assume the other recipes are just made up or maybe copied from other countries TM books ?

im finding the whole thing hilarious and wonderng how HQ is dealing with this!!!  love to be a fly on the wall in Grace's office!!

My goodness! Is there anything that Google doesn't save??  Don't know which is scariest . . . the recipes  . . or Google . . ;D ;D ;D  It really sounds as though someone has fed the book into babel fish or some other online translator . . worth the price of admission!! ;D ;D ;D

Wouldn't it be amazing it Vorwerk or  or anyone from ANY Thermomix HO took an interest in replying to any comments made here on
this open forum.

I am sure we would welcome their comments  on any of our  bouquets or brickbats. At least we would know  they take some interest in what their customers think. There  is no reason why they  should not have a voice here. We would certainly appreciate their feedback as well as helping us to see their  view point. Encouraging the consultants to have a voice here would be a step in the right direction .

How many of us have to time to follow so many Facebook , blogs,and twitters to keep up to date and hello, we have over 6000 members right here willing to share, listen and contribute from all over the world and in so many languages.


Of course we will always follow our favourite  specialised blogs and Facebook pages but right here is where we can find out about EVERYTHING and that leads us to other wonderful  blogs and places.

This is getting more and more interesting the more I read. My sister (a consultant) was dumb founded when I shared the news with her today :)
Where will this go?

Dede is your sister on this forum? We would love to hear from her  and other consultants. This is a great place to network and I am sure she can give us some good advice  and in turn we might  be able to send some interested her way .

Well I received my Target catalogue today and yes the Bellini kitchen master is in there and on sale starting Thursday.
I want to go to Target and check it out closely. But unfortunately I'm not sure if I can hop that far, and if I did I would have to go up the escalator on crutches (I don't think so ;D)
