xx
-
Tenina, this is March???? If it is , great for Macedon.
-
Need an area for Adelaide please Tenina.
-
Yes March and no area specific for Adelaide JD…just central I am told…looking for suitable venue.
-
Will wait for venue location, prices etc Tenina - lovely to see you on the move eastwards.
-
Would love to see you further East...Sydney!!!
-
Sydney will definitely happen later in the year Courton!
-
Oh and what about france bahhaha lol 😄😄😄
-
Never say never Frozzie…I would kill to get up there…you would have to translate of course!
-
No problem...now wouldnt that be fun 😜
-
Go go go if you get the chance. 8)
-
If the venue is not too far from me Tenina, I would have to go to the 1pm class - evenings not suitable for me.
-
Sorry for delay on this!! I'm in for the Tuesday Adelaide class if it goes ahead! Yay!!!!!!!
-
Tenina, is this class the same as the last one you did in Perth? Perhaps you could name the recipes you will be doing as some people may think it is all about chocolate (and therefore not be interested) but I think I know differently.
-
Faye Gardiner also in for Tuesday 7pm
-
Tenina hopefully my daughter and I can make the 1pm in Adelaide.
-
Planning on one of the Monday ones in Adelaide- when can we book??
-
I should have booking details really soon guys…just finalising venues…thanks and stay tuned.
-
As well as choclate things Tenina made a rye bread which was awesome and a casserole and a dip/spread/ and..........................................
-
Thanks Cookie, the name of the class is a little misleading.
-
Will definately be attending the Adelaide class bring on the details!
-
Tenina uses crio bru in most things but I'm sure she could help with a way round that if you couldn't use it. The bread with just a touch of crio bru in was very nice.
-
We are changing the name of the class to For Foods Sake as it is a bit of a book promotion thingy….
Less Crio Bru, and bigger range of recipes…so all good there
Dates are locked in

-
Tenina can we please reserve 2 tickets to the Tuesday March 13th class at 7pm. Lisa Arnold & Faye Gardiner.
-
Yes Lisa, please email me privately and I will make sure there are two for you.
Thanks ;D
-
I'm definitely interested for one of the Adelaide sessions depending on cost, on a bit of a budget atm!
-
Not 100% until Monday, but we think our Adelaide classes will be held here…
http://www.freshkitchens.com.au (http://www.freshkitchens.com.au)
And the cost will be $66 incl GST
Tax receipts are available on request unless you are ordering online, in which case you will get one anyway.
I read on here somewhere (and now can’t find it again!!) that someone is upset that I am advertising on the forum, but the heads up, is that I have permission from the Master Moderator and owner of the forum to do so. I would never have presumed to just start advertising without his nod of approval…
I hope I am not spamming you…
:-\
-
Tenina let me know if you ever need a place in syd for one of your classes
-
Tenina I don't think they were upset just concerned that your posts were breaking the rules of the forum and didn't want to see them removed. I'm glad to see you have MMs approval anyway.
I think I read the rules when I first joined the forum but couldn't remember the content of them. I have never been asked to remove any posts so I must be on track lol.
-
Hi Tenina, I'm the person who asked the question about you advertising on the forum and I'm definitely not upset about you doing so, I was merely asking a question about application of the guidelines/rules as another poster who was advertsing spatulas etc a few weeks ago was asked if they had read them and then their post disappeared and I presummed it had been removed. I think it's fantastic that genuine TMX cookbooks and accessories are able to be advertised on here as it's a fantastic way of knowing what's available out there for TMX fans. The moderators do an amazing job of keeping this forum under control and it's a fantastic place full of great informative information. Unfortunately I'm a bit of a stickler for rules and particularly if I think they are not being applied uniformly so I'll always ask the question if I'm unsure - sorry if it came across as being upset or having a go at you. MM has also answered the question on the longer post about your book.
-
Thanks for that Wonder…did find it again later, I am clearly reading too much on here, and old timers disease kicks in and I cant remember where I saw anything…
I believe based on it being Thermomix related, the rules are going to change…but dont quote me on that. (And I had actually never read any rules, so it was news to me as well!!)
Based on the fact that we all want as much as we can that promotes the use of Thermomix…there will be certain criteria…so I will make sure I come within the guidelines, and I totally understand what you were getting at. It needs to be a level playing ground for all.

When are tickets going on sale Tenina?
-
OKEY…after much finger drumming…we are going to have tickets for Adelaide and Melb classes up mid morning tomorrow, with or without the artwork. There are several people who have prebooked, I have set aside places, but you must still book in through the systerm. I am not announcing on FB that the tickets are available until you have booked…please be timely, so that I can release the news.
Thanks so much and it is now way much more than Chic Chocolat, it has become 'For Foods Sake, the epic tale of a girl and her thermomix' class….so be prepared for more fun than you can poke a stick at!
xx
-
Thanks Tenina, the venue is set then for Fresh Kitchen Solutions?
-
Yes JD…book tomorrow for sure...
-
Given that Melb is on the right side of oz just a little further nth you will find sunny Qld, Tenina.....diary is opened and ready to pencil you in 👍
-
Lol robyn
-
Made of awesome! I will actually be home on annual leave when you are in Melbourne. A friend of mine in Perth has been to one of your classes Tenina and she was really inspired. Now I just have to get in early enough to get a ticket *grin*
-
Yay! Classes are up and I just secured a ticket!! Now I can get back to work and stop checking the website every 10 minutes. :-)
-
Me too! - Very excited!
-
Given that Melb is on the right side of oz just a little further nth you will find sunny Qld, Tenina.....diary is opened and ready to pencil you in 👍
I KNOW….and my daughter is in Gold Coast now…so what more of an excuse do I need??
(Pete are you listening?)
-
All booked and secured, so what happens next Tenina - do we received tickets in the mail?
Who else is going to the 1pm 12/3 class - so far we have Trudy and Katiej going.
-
Would love to go but unfortunately we'll be in America on holidays for the Melbourne dates. looks like I'll need to wait a little longer.
-
What a great time to go to the USA with our $$$$ being so strong. Have a great trip.
-
I managed to book my ticket as well, yay!
JD - when I paid for my ticket there was a download attached & I printed my ticket. I think that might be all you need?
-
Oops, didn't see that Katie - now I have no idea how to get it. Tenina - H E L P !
-
I just got my ticket for the 1pm adelaide class too. Can't wait :)
-
We can have a mini Adelaide catchup :)
Oops, didn't see that Katie - now I have no idea how to get it. Tenina - H E L P !
JD it was also in the email I received from sales@tenina confirming my booking. It has the downloadable file attached (better download it now if you can, as mine says it expires in 72 hours).
I'm sure Tenina will help though if you haven't got it.
-
I have no attachment to print out Katie. I have my Paypal receipt and order confirmation from sales@tenina so they will have to do.
Nice to see some more forum members going, that's 4 that I know of.
-
I don't think it will matter if you have the actual ticket Judy, you will be in the VIP list anyway!!
-
:D :D I doubt it but hey, we must make ourselves known to each other if we are forum members. Hopefully Tenina will ask for a show of hands in this regard.
-
I'm sure you will all love it. Can't wait to read about it.
-
I sent an email to clarify the ticket issue (or lack of in my case :-))) and this is the reply I received.
Hi Judy,
Our system generates a automatic ticket once the order has been
manually processed online.
However it is not necessary to bring a ticket, your name will be down
at the door.
Looking forward to cooking with you in Adelaide.
Thanks

Good to hear that they will let you in Judy :D :D :D :D :D :D
Have a fabulous time :-* :-*
-
Yes I was glad to receive that reply CC. You will no doubt hear all about the class in due course.
-
Have fun jd and the other forum members going..😭
-
Hi, Have just booked 4 tickets for the Monday 1pm session. Have booked for my 2 sister-in-laws, my mother in law and myself. 3 of us are from Bordertown (3 hours away) and one from Burnside, Adelaide. Can't wait. It will be nice to see some faces from the Forum which I love, have got lots of great recipes from here.
-
You're keen haybray to come all the way from Bordertown - guess these type of classes don't come to you so you have to go to them. See you there.
-
Yes coming a long way, but hopefully it will be worth the trip to learn some new things and to meet Tenina. Judydawn have printed off some of your recipes but have not tried them yet, but will soon. Will be nice to meet you all. See you there
-
At this rate all 25 tickets will be forum members! :D
-
Lol. I'm booked for 1pm in Adelaide too- and booked a ticket for my cousin as well. It will be fabulous to meet all the forum members (I stalk, read and cook more than I post :-) )
-
We will have to do something about that then won't we Honey joy ;D
-
Ihave enrolled in the Gisborne one on the 14th. Any one else from the Forum.? There were only 6 places left.
-
L (I stalk,
has anyone noticed . . . .??? we all seem to be "stalkers" . . "lurkers" . . . . or "users" . . . :o :o :o ;D ;D ;D
-
Oh Chookie I wish you were over my side, I've booked for DD and myself in Frankston 16th 11 am anyone else going to this. Fun Fun Fun :)
-
Aussie Brenda, I also wish we were at the same one. Never mind, we will catch up one day.
-
Aussie Brenda - I am going to the Frankston 16th at 11am - I look forward to meeting you there :)
-
Great Dragongirly looking forward to it.
-
To Dragongirly, Hi Fiona just went back to see if you had posted your name. HA HA
-
I've booked in for the 1 pm Adelaide class too! It will be my first ever class! I'm ecxited ;D
-
I bet you are ES, see you there.
-
JD, I was thinking of you this morning, or more accurately thinking of the line in your posts " a ccok with gadgets ..." as I was making Chookie's hot cross rolls with my TMX, silpat baking mat, pastry cutter etc...how true that saying is......
-
courton, hope the Hot X Buns turned out OK.
-
Chookie's, the hot cross buns were yummy. I followed your suggestion of 15mins at 200ff and then possibly 5 mins. It was still a bit burnt but I am now starting to think that it might be my oven. In our recently bought house the Miele oven is one size smaller than than the Miele oven I had previously. This could possibly explain why the golden syrup cake also rose and had deep cracks it it (Maybe).
-
Courton, perhaps you should buy a cheap oven thermometer to put inside your new oven, so that you will k ow what the actual temperature is. I have lots of problems with my oven. I keep a thermometer in it all the time. Last week I was doing a lot of cooking for a party, set my oven for 160C, looked inside and discovered it was actually 210C. So frustrating!
-
Yes a good idea emeraldsue. I presume you can buy it from speciality kitchen shops.
-
Just letting you all know I am excited, but relaxed and really looking forward to heading over…its going to be a hoot, I think thanks to Pete from Hub and Spoke because he is paying for my flights and accomodation, which takes the pressure off with regards to ticket sales. I have not been on here much, life is frantic but fun. The book is going gang busters thanks to you all, and one book seller has told us he is selling more of FFS than Jamie Oliver cookbooks…bless his cotton socks! So that was exciting.
There are still a few seats left in all classes except Gisborne and quite a few in Frankston, so hoping if you know someone in any of the areas I am heading to, you will let them know how much fun it is going to be….
see you there!
:D

This is the group from our forum at the 1pm class today in Adelaide. Thanks Tenina, it was very enjoyable and it was lovely to catch up with you again plus meet some new forum members too. Loved the sample bag, nice little touch to a cooking class and really enjoyed the taste samples of your recipes.
Anyone still thinking of attending the Adelaide class, Tenina says there are a couple of spots available tonight and a few still available for Tuesday evening 13th. Grab a friend and go along if you can, it was a real treat to have Tenina here in Adelaide and it may be a while before she passes this way again.

Smart thinking JD taking a camera!! I'm super excited to be going to tomorrow's class. Hopefully Tenina still has some books left for sale!
-
They were certainly selling well today Lisa but there seemed to be plenty there.
-
Thanks for the photo Judy. I just remembered that it was on today. So glad that you enjoyed it.
-
Wow, that was quick with the photo Judy and lovely to meet you today! I'm feeling so full from all the different foods, but can't stop flicking through my new, autographed book and feeling inspired to get cooking. I would recommend the class, food and goodie bag to anyone who is undecided about going!
-
I agree with Honey Joy. ;D
All the food was delicious. I'm off to order some Crio Bru and test out some of the recipes in my Thermo Chef.
If there are any Thermo Chef owners who are hesitant about attending Tenia's classes because they don't have a thermomix machine, please don't be. I picked up lots of hints from Tenia that I will be able to use in my cooking.
I'm going to spend the evening drooling over my first thermomix book!
-
I too had a great afternoon, what better way to have a break from my rugrats. Going to check out the Crio Bru site now. Food was delicious and wonderful to meet not only Tenina but our other celeb...Judy!!
-
It was a great afternoon, meeting Tenina and all the other Adelaide girls.
I just ordered some Crio Bru too, can't wait for it to arrive :)
-
Nice to put names to faces,thanks for putting up the photo JD.It sounds as though you all had a wonderful time. :)

Thanks for the photo jd.. Lovely to see more forum faces and updated ones of longtime members... Notice i didnt say older 😝
-
Lol Frozzie. :)
-
Went to the 1pm class today and really enjoyed it. Thanks Tenina. Purchased the book and had it personally signed, which was great. My mother in law was with me and also got a signed book but when she left couldn't find her signed copy so if anyone has taken a book by mistake please let me know, it is signed to Yvonne inside. Was worth the 3 hour trip and also got some shopping done.
-
Oh that's terrible Haybray, poor MIL. I bought 2 books but no personal signature in either of mine. I do hope someone finds the book for Yvonne.
-
Thats terrible.. Lets just hope someone took it by accident..did you ask tenina if she found a signed copy after the class was over?? Sounds to me though that someone took it .. I have litte faith in the good nature of others... The older i get the more bad eggs that seem to cross my path..i do hope though that in this instance that i will stand corrected and that someone finds your copy??
-

Jury I would have happily signed yours. Really at a loss as to what happened to Yvonne's book. We will send her another if it doesn't show up! There wasn't two Yvonne's at the class somsomeo has the wrong book!
It was a lot of fun to meet so many of you in one class and yes we have room tonight. Consultants are strictly prohibited from promoting any of my work, ( I could go off on a tangent here!!! But last time I checked we mostly live in a free country!) I had lovely helpers who have taken off their Thermomix aprons to help me...and I really appreciate it!
Stay tuned! This is all just the beginning... Thanks again to the forum for your open support.
Xx
-
Tenina don't bring out another book yet, I have not got FFS book yet. I can't keep up lol. :)
-
That is bad about the book missing, however I have found that there is often confusion and excitement at such events.
I am hoping that some one took 2 by mistake.
-
Very sad for Yvonne.
Tenina I'm glad your Adelaide get togethers went well. It was certainly enjoyed by all-obviously.
-
Tenina don't bring out another book yet, I have not got FFS book yet. I can't keep up lol. :)
Well hurry up dede!!! How long should I wait??
-
Tenina don't bring out another book yet, I have not got FFS book yet. I can't keep up lol. :)
Well hurry up dede!!! How long should I wait??
Please, not long at all! :D Absolutely loving your book Tenina. ;D
-
I hope there is some good news for Yvonne & her book turns up soon.
Losing the book must have been such a disappointment.
-
Hi Haybray, I hope someone has let you know that they found Yvonne's book. If not please let Tenina know as perhaps it was moved and then left behind. Good luck, Trudy
-
Have you put it on Facebook too haybray - I remember people saying they heard about the class there, not through the forum so the non-forum members at the cooking class would not know about it.
-
Tenina don't bring out another book yet, I have not got FFS book yet. I can't keep up lol. :)
Well hurry up dede!!! How long should I wait??
Lol. Better not wait for me Tenina other wise the other TM members will gang up on me ;D
-
Certainly hope that the book surfaces as it is a great resource. Tenina, bit off topic BUT need to Pencil the Adelaide
Melb QLD Dates but having trouble seeing them - (http://www.myemoticons.com/emoticons/images/msn/moods/giggle.gif)
-
Hi All, No the book has not been found yet. Tenina knows about it as we spoke to her about it before we left. Unfortunately I do not have facebook. But hopefully it may still turn up, miracles do happen. Give it another few days and if it doesn't turn up I will let Tenina know.
-
We will send you a book Yvonne. Disappointed it hasnt shown up yet. Thanks to Pete you will a new one...unsigned but all the recipes still work!!
xx
-
Fab class at Gisborne last night. Picked up some terrific tips.. Will report on these and the demo later. In Melb. Looking after sick GC.
-
Thank you sooooo much Tenina. I'm sure my mother in law will be glad.Wonder if we will ever hear as to where the book went. I'm looking through my new cook book and it is fantastic. Can't wait to try them all, love it. Once again thank you for posting another book for Yvonne and thanks for the great class. Just ordered some Crio Bru.
-
My turn tomorrow, I'm getting excited I'm taking my daughter who has a TMX but doesn't use it enough so this might encourage her to try some new recipes.
-
And it was great to meet you last night Chookie!
If anyone has the chance to ever attend one of Tenina's classes I would highly recommend it.
-
Shanmac and 2 friends drove through a storm to get to Tenina's class. How about that ?

Bet they were glad they did. Tenina's classes are fantastic
-
Shanmac, great to meet you also. i have put a report in under a separate hedding, Chit Chat, Cooking with Tenina.
-
Just letting everyone know that my MIL For Foods Sake book did not turn up. My MIL told me yesterday that she has received a new copy and some tea towels from Tenina in the post. Thank you so much Tenina for being so kind in sending her a new copy, she was so happy. Loving my copy of For Foods Sake. I highly recommend it. Once again thank you so much Tenina.
-
Nice outcome for MIL from the very generous Tenina haybray but how disappointing the book went missing in the first place.
-
Tenina, you are great to make good like this. It is hard to believe that someone would pinch it. I'll bet they aren't a Forum member. :-))
-
Such a lovely thing to do Tenina. What a horrid thing to do the person that took it. Hopefully it was an accident. :-[
-
It would be nice to think it was an accident Cookie, but I don't see how someone "accidently" takes a cookbook they didn't pay for or didn't belong to them.
Well done Tenina's for her generosity in sending a replacement book. A happy ending!
-
Yvonne, you are totally welcome, and I too am sorry that it went walkies…but benefit of the doubt…hoping still that someone will open up the recipe book one day and go…’who the heck is Yvonne??’ hahaha
Thanks too to Pete from Hub and Spoke who happily replaced the book for Yvonne at my request.
;D ;D
-
Thanks Pete. :D
