Title: I'm excited!
Post by: Greenwitch on September 14, 2010, 10:48:27 pm

I'm new to the forum and don't get my TM until tonight - been waiting 4 days!  I went to a demo thinking there'd be no way I'd buy one and  was blown away by everyone's enthusiasm.  So, ordered one right away.  I just can't wait as I've been studying recipes on the forum and don't know which to start with - wish me luck.

Hi. Gertbysea - I love that name! 

I really didn't introduce myself in the first post so heregoes.  I'm an almost Merry Widow living alone in Bayside Victoria so am also girt by sea!  Have recently been renovating and everything is a terrible mess so I shall concentrate on cooking and not cleaning until its all over.  I have one grownup son who is overseas right now but will be cross that I've spent more of his inheritance - at least until I impress him with the new culinary skills.

Hi Sue, welcome to the forum.  Nice to have a diversion whilst waiting for the renovations to finish and yay, spend more of that money - most kids seem to have more than us these days anyway  :D :D

Welcome Sue. Go for it. We've told DD she has to work to create her own inheritance.

Thank you all so much for making me welcome.  This morning I thought "great - now I'll have a fabulous  Boost Juice fro brekkie", plugged in the TM, put in the ice and fruit and tried to turn the speed selector and couldn't - what fundamentally basic thing could I have left out.  Has anyone else had this experience and felt as stupid as I do??

Was your lid locked into place correctly Greenwitch?

Oops - the lid was not properly locked into place, even though I could have sworn it was!

Thanks all.

You can hear a beep if it's turned on when you lock the lid in place. I still go to turn it on and it's not fully locked.

Thanks Cookie - I realised that in the end and everything is fine.
