Title: New in SA
Post by: Ostara on October 12, 2010, 02:42:22 pm: Hello! I am in the worst waiting period ;) - between ordering and receiving! So in the meantime I'm perusing the forums and getting my head around just how much I can do!

It feels like an eternity but once you get it there's no stopping you.
Make up a menu plan for the first week and ensure you have all the ingredients on hand.
I kept having to send my poor hubby up to the shop for odd ingredients that I hadn't planned for. He didn't complain once! He knows which side his bread's buttered on. (Both sides with thermo made butter!!! ;D)
Enjoy when it arrives.
We look forward to seeing more posts on here from you.

Post by: Ostara on October 14, 2010, 05:25:49 am: trudy that'd be lovely :) but I have to get it first!

I actually already have the stock concentrate thanks to my dear friend/tmx dealer! I think a risotto is on the cards. Spinach from the garden and herbs and lemon perhaps.
