Title: Jumping in feet first!
Post by: Serija on November 09, 2011, 09:09:18 am
I gave my awesome rep the paperwork this afternoon for the Thermomix. I will hopefully be on my way to Thermomix heaven early next week!

I have dreamed of owning a Thermomix now for almost 2 years and have put it off for just as long, just waiting for the right time. I have been browsing the recipes here and I am so keen to get started with making so many tasty and healthy meals!

I am in WA, I see from the poll that there is a lot of WA Thermomixers out there. I can't wait to join in on all the fun  ;D

Hi Serija and welcome.  The waiting is agonising, I know, but once you get it and start using it, it will seem like you have had it forever!

Welcome Serija.  The delivery wait will seem longer the the entire previous two years!  Now's the time to check your recipes, make sure you've got all the ingredients ready to go and give the house an extra special clean because it may be neglected for a wee while whilst you "bond" with your TMX.

Oh Serija - I know just how you feel. I am a newbie and although I did not have to wait too long (only a week)  I had a very long list of recipes that I wanted to try (the list is getting shorter but my waistline is getting larger).  I am sure you will enjoy.  Good luck.

You are going to love both this forum and your thermie.  We hardly ever have the same meal again there is so much choice. Have fun, from an almost Perthite!

Still anxiously awaiting news from my rep. I am sure it won't be long now!

News of expanding waistlines is not what I want to hear lol, I am doing my bit to make mine shrink at the moment and I need to keep it that way. It may be a challenge though, and I just have to keep telling myself to be good  ;D

It's hard to decide what I want to make first. I am sure I will have an overload of food around here soon and a freezer packed full of yumminess!

Yes welcome Serija... I too was like you and waited nearly 2 years after I had my first Thermomix experience. I absolutely love mine... I do use it most days and some days several times a day. This forum is THE BEST place to get friendly helpful advice and tips and so many great recipes... :) :) I am sure that you will be like me and wonder how you ever managed to live without one... :) :) Enjoy it... :)

I am also a newbie from WA.

I am loving mine so far - yesterday I cooked 2 cakes and dinner as well (when I got home from work)  I was never much of a baker and my kids are loving it.

my biggest problem is remembering to put the measuring cup on the top so the stuff doesnt fly out!   ;D

I have it!! I picked it up today and i just made my first ever Thermomix item...Lemonade!! How refreshing is it to drink!?!

OMG...what to do next! Kids want sorbet so I guess that will do  ;D
Title: Re: Jumping in feet first!
Post by: judydawn on November 21, 2011, 10:55:44 am
I have to agree with you Serija, this time of the year the lemonade goes down really well.  Sounds like you are going to be kept busy with the orders already coming in from the kids.

OMG!!! It really is the be all and end all to kitchen appliances! I just made a mixed berry sorbet and the kids are keen to eat it but not so keen to finish their dinner to get any...so it looks like it will be in the freezer for an after school treat tomorrow :P

What can I do next!  ;D
