Title: A new Thermomix junkie! - Melbourne, Australia
Post by: shar-la on July 13, 2010, 12:33:28 pm

Hi all, Just want to say thank you for this forum. its wonderful and has helped answer lots of questions. I have had my 'The-Man' 2 1/2 weeks now, and it currently home on top of my cooker (a ceramic cooktop and a lovely new bench space) I have not got one saucepan out nor, of course, used my cooktop since I bought it home from my wonderful Thermomix Lady, Steph. 

I was hooked the moment I was in the demo, and well, believe it totally, that it can change your life in the kitchen.

I have a toddler, am 6 months pregnant and was almost totally over cooking of any sort, especially with a lovely fussy little boy.  And anything to make that life in the kitchen easier, i was up for it.  My son loves, almost, anything i serve him now. YAY, as he gets involved also.

I am a dedicated organic, and alternative and fresh food person.  I am currently trying out wheat free and or Yeast free bread recipes (not Gluten free) So please anyone have any links to a good spelt grain or other bread loaf recipe?  yeast I will use for the moment until summer comes and i can make my own sour dough culture.

Anyway, THANKS again for this forum, Look forward to reading more and trying more.

New love of my thermomix (The-Man) in my kitchen.

Hi shar-la and a big welcome to the forum.  It is a wonderful place to be as far as having questions answered and recipes galore - glad to hear you have found it useful and look forward to your contributions.  Will leave the bread recipe question for others who are more knowledgeable about it than me.

No my mistake for speeeeeeeeed reading - realised when you said he was on the cooker, that it wouldn't be your son (hopefully  ;D ;D ;D)
