Title: Hi from Point Cook
Post by: davemack on March 04, 2012, 10:53:45 am
Hi, I've had my TMX for just under a year now - I use it all the time, and have referred to this Forum a few times over the last few months… 

I work at Slattery Media Group - the publisher of Dani Valent's In The Mix cookbook, although I can't claim to have had any involvement in the process of the book creation - I head up the digital team at Slattery Media Group.

It's interesting to see how everyone here uses their TMX, and the different recipes you have all adapted to the machine…  Preparing food for work lunches would be my favourite reason for using my TMX - it is such a cost saver, and it makes the people at work jealous of the lunches I can bring…  Saying that, I use it almost daily, and on reflection, there is so much more that I could be doing with it if I could find the time to prepare properly…

I bought Tenina's book today, and made the Curry paste, Butternut Pumpkin Soup, Baguette and the Curry Mayo (which I have mixed with shredded chicken to have on my sandwiches baguette tomorrow).

I hope to post some new recipes and comment on some of the discussions…

Chat with you all soon...

Welcome davemack. You will love Tenina's book. You'll see from the reviews section that we have all been making and reviewing her recipes.

I've just had a look at your blog davemack. I love the way it is set out, it's so very clear and as Chookie says the peanut biscuits look lovely.

Thanks for your comments on my site - I actually wasn't going to add it to my profile because the site isn't quite finished…


achookwoman:  You must try those peanut cookies, they taste even better than they look – especially when you make your own Peanut butter!

The only problem I had when visiting your site davemack was the fact that I had to wait until dozens of items were downloaded which I found unusual for a blog.  I have printed out your bickie recipe, it does look great.

I hope you enjoy the bikkies Judy - still working on the development site, it isn't actually ready yet… there is a caching system to add in which will speed it up significantly, but until then it does run a little slow…
