Thanks Karen, will try that. If I make a batch for myself, there are heaps of leftovers so it is going to be time consuming getting it into all those little trays but then I can see how much easier it will be to just blitz a bowlful at a later date. DH very rarely eats cold things like ice-cream or sorbet so it's great when the grand-kids come down to visit - they love it.

Can you believe I've had my TM for about 5 weeks now and I haven't made a sorbet yet  
You will JulieO, once our weather warms up a bit. I haven't done one all winter either and you need a few people to share it with. I prefer it freshly made - anyone got any clues how to freshen up the frozen leftovers - it sets like ice.

Unless we all go to her place and help her out Kathryn I can remember 40 years ago buying hindquarters of beef and sides of lamb for the freezer and thinking nothing of it but I'd hate to think how much it would cost today.

Cathy I freeze my garlic cloves (do a bagful at a time, easy to peel them in the TMX on reverse) removing the green centre part. It makes life so much easier just to grab how many you want out of the zip-lock bag and throw it into the TMX. We had a huge discussion on the forum a while back. http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=371.0

When my girls took me to America a bit back and we did a bus tour to Tijuana (just over the border and into Mexico), I noticed (apart from the zebra striped painted donkey everyone was having a photo taken with!) that there were signs everywhere advertising the sale of bottles of pure vanilla essence. Apparently it was really cheap but I only used to use imitation vanilla essence back then and couldn't understand their obsession with the real thing. Anyone know why they were making such a big deal of it - do they grow the beans there I wonder?

Thanks for trying them CP63 - yes they are expensive but good for special occasions. Lamb is a luxury these days unfortunately.

Does it taste like and have the texture of soft-serve icecream?

Hi Sylvia, welcome to the forum. Glad to see you've already been browsing and now you have another 2 weeks to do more reading and printing so you will be fully armed with knowledge and recipes you want to try by the time your TMX arrives. Hope to see you report back once you start cooking and trying different things - reviews are so helpful to us all and I'm sure this is what encourages others to try recipes too.

You just scrape the seeds out at the end of that period? I can't believe it is so easy to make vanilla extract - would save a lot of money the way I seem to go through it (and I don't even bake a lot!)

Spring is here and it is time to tidy up all our drawers, cupboards etc. I started on my dressing table yesterday and decided to roll all the scarves, pj's etc and was amazed at how uncrowded the drawers now look. I can see everything at a glance. Today was babysitting day at DD's place so I decided to go through Miss 4.5's drawers too, putting aside everything that was size 3 and rolling everything else. Miss 4.5 was 'amazed' with her new drawer set up - let's hope she keeps it like that. I just showed my neighbour what I've done here and she's now keen to do the same at her place.
