Recipe Requests / massage balm recipes?
« on: October 11, 2010, 11:32:56 pm »
Does anyone have a recipe for massage balm? (beeswax plus coconut oil or suchlike)  I see there are some for lip balms but I gather the quantities are probably different as they are more for moisturising rather than providing 'grip' and reducing friction during massage.   

Cheers!

We have had our TMX for about a week and it has been great fun.  The whole family has been having a go, which has been great for all of us.  - sigh - its so much fun I need to find some low fat options too.  Its a wonderful gadget.  I look forward to hearing ideas and sharing thoughts with everyone on the forum.   :)

Potato Gnocchi
Everyday Cooking for every family
p.90

The second paragraph talks about mashing the potatoes - but there is no mention of needing to stop and let the bowl cool down (possibly should take potatoes out) so that the interval setting function will work.  This function will only work if the bowl is not hot.

I found this out too late - when in the middle of cooking - and it really made dinner very late.  I would have chosen to cook it when i had more time otherwise, or managed it a very differently (got a couple of child and spouse helpers in ;)). 

Also, 1kg of potatoes definitely made enough to feed the family and freeze some - but it doesnt mention how much it will make.  So I made too much and wasn't prepared for the freezing bit. 

My lack of prep doesn't mean it isn't easy to make, but these little inclusions will make a world of difference to newbies like me.

I hope this is helpful!
