Title: Hi from Cranbourne
Post by: kent on March 26, 2012, 01:40:25 am
Hi there, my name is Kent, I live in Cranbourne, Victoria, Australia.

My Mum introduced me to her TM machine a few months ago, and I'm really impressed by it.  I really want one.  I'm not much of a cook, so having a nifty easy to use gadget will help encourage me to eat healthier, fresh foods.

Also interested in becoming a Consultant, as I'd like to make more people aware of this awesome product.  I have a full time job, so not at all in it for the money, just for a hobby on the side really.

Just need to save up some money to get one now :-)

Hello and welcome Kent. I think that you can bcome a demonstator and pay off your machine with the sales you make. Perhaps a consultant on here can clarify this for you.

Take care

Hi Kent, welcome to the forum.  If you have plenty of friends, it's a good way to sell machines.

Welcome Kent. So that you can get your TMX sooner why not ask for gifts of money for birthday etc that people can put into your TMX savings. Every couple of dollars will help.

Yeehaw, my awesome sister is lending me her Thermomix for a week so I can play around with it.  What a legend she is.

I'm picking it up tonight.  Looking at buying in July :-)

Hi Kent,
Play with the TMX as much as you can.
It is so totally addictive all other priorities will be forgotten and soon you will have one of your own.

Yeah it's a bit like that  :)

It will be hard to give it back to her, but that's okay, I'll get mine some day!

I got it late tonight, so all I've done is a milkshake LOL.  More to come tomorrow hopefully

Well, over a year later, we've finally bought one.

Doing it a little backwards, pre-bought the TMX, and are having the demonstration retrospectively in a couple of weeks.  The consultant is bringing our new one with her.  Didn't want to miss out on the demo, as we've never been to one before, so looking forward to it.

Also, decided not to become a consultant, simply don't have enough time to do it.

Can't wait!!!!!

All good things come to those who wait Kent and how wonderful to hear that you have finally bought your own after having a trial run with your sister's machine.  Happy cooking and thanks for letting us know what's happening there.

I guess you are very busy using your new machine. What have you been making?

I guess you are very busy using your new machine. What have you been making?

We've only made stuff from the EDC so far.

First thing we made was capsicum & sundried tomato dip which was awesome.
Banana icecream
Garlic and herb pull-apart loaf
Veggie stock concentrate
Cooked some dry pasta
Strawberry jam (tastes unreal - so much better than anything store bought)
Poached eggs

Pretty basic stuff so far, will be steaming some veggies in the varoma tonight.

Love how you save so much time on cleaning.  To do the above would be many many pots and pans :-)

A good way to start Kent, nice to hear you are moving onto the varoma next.
