Yes , that is the shop, Daiso. I bought small mesh bags to pop in my hand bag. Sheets of fluffy stuff that soaks up scum or oil on top of stock.
Marina, is there one in Melbourne?  This one was at Highpoint.

I think there is one downstairs on the corner of Bourke and Swanston Street - I will have to check it out.

Yes Marina. Where Readers' Feast was long ago.

Thanks Marina and Cookie.  We are in Melbourne again at the end of the month and I will check it out.

Look what I found in an op shop this morning Chookie.  Perfect little gadget to put the lemon or cumquat pips in when I make marmalade, it will hold ample enough and can hang down through the whole in the TMX lid.

Purchased the latest Revive Cafe Cookbook (from Auckland, NZ) ... one for me one for my Kris Kringle

Oops, forgot to add the photo to my previous post. Have now done so.

Judy, very good purchase.  I’ve got several.  All different sizes. Haven’t thought to use them in the TMX.
Yesterday made Lemon butter and 5 jars of Strawberry Conserve.  All in TMX.

I have one of those too Judy.  I use it for tea leaves if I'm the only one who wants a cuppa.

Lateral thinking there. I have a tea leaves one or two and I’ve never thought of using them in the thermomix for jams.

I didn’t either girls until I came across this one. I was pretty excited LOL

Last Xmas we were given an Aldi Boxed Italian fruit cake. Panattone . It was much nicer than the more expensive ones that I tasted in David Jones. Also a third of the price.  I have bought several this year to gave a presents.  They are in the shops now.
