Title: Husband's Surprise Gift
Post by: ella*ava on January 13, 2013, 01:32:44 pm: Hi Everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. My husband bought me my fabulous Thermomix as a surprise 2 weeks before we had our 3rd baby (2 months ago). I had been begging him for a while but he could not see the value in them. A good friend of ours is a consultant and invited our circle of friends (husbands and all) over for a demo... well several cocktails later he was also a huge fan, and a couple of weeks later my friend delivered one to me. Now that my daughter is 8 weeks old I have a bit more time to experiment I can't wait to get some great recipes and advice from here :)

So many husbands have to see to believe.
My DH couldn't believe hs eyes and taste buds at my demo and I had my TMX delivered the same week
You will love this machine :D

It's always a great idea getting the husbands along to a demo, they are usually won over when the see this little baby in action. Help yourself to our recipes and in time please do share some of your recipe conversions with us too.

I don't think my husband would have been too keen without seeing a demo either - in fact even when we first got it he seemed a bit unsure. But he was just saying over the weekend that he'd definitely buy one again.

I'm sure your TMX will be a big help in keeping your crew fed and happy. ;D

Let us know how things go with your new machine. It is always lovely to bread thermomix stories.

That is the perfect combination.
You will be able to whip up perfect food for #3 soon and TM will give you some extra time to spend with the baby.
