Congratulations Russell - you will love your new baby - mine has been working overtime since last Sunday when I had the demo - I keep on thinking of new things I can try and so far have done 23 different breads, sauces, meals, yoghurts, jam, ice cream, mayonnaise - the list goes on but you will find out how obsessive it becomes yourself.  Good luck, Mil

That menu sounds as though it will definitely impress - despite any doubts your guests may have had over the authenticity of food prepared and cooked in the magical TMX, love and keep that food rolling, MIL

Chit Chat / First Mistake
« on: March 29, 2010, 06:40:32 am »
First day with a new toy - I guess you are allowed one mistake - mine was to put the lid and MC into the dishwasher thinking all work had been completed - silly me.  Went out to make meat balls with tomato sauce and could find the TMX but searched high and low for the lid.  Thank heavens sanity prevailed and I remembered the error never to be made again - from now on ALL parts of TMX remain at bench level.  The meat balls look good too.

Is there a message icon for exhausted???- after the bread, biscuits and the semi successful yogurt I have now achieved a marvelous peach and banana smoothie (with the runny yogurt) - ideal for DH's breakfast - followed by a quick trip to the fruit shop for further supplies.  This morning has turned out pumpkin soup, tomato relish, further yogurt (looking very good) and ice cream (tasting very good). This is the most wonderful invention - as long as we have time to eat everything before the next wave of creativity hits me.  Thanks for all that wonderful support and sharing - wonder what all the bored people are doing.

Not long to go till I get my hands onto this new piece of magic - will definitely be making bread (ingredients for several varieties already purchased), yoghurt is also high on the list and as I read through this forum I am suffering overload of ideas. My original TMX was purchased though a party given by a mother from the kids' school in Sydney - unfortunately in the days pre-internet and WWW it was all but impossible to replace the seal on the machine when it deteriorated after about ten years - despite efforts to track one down even through the German embassy.  The old cookbook was discarded only about 12 months ago - kicking myself now - and the TMX insulated jug (white and orange) only met its demise when we moved house two years ago and it was in a carton that went to heaven.  All behind me now - roll out the old - roll in the new.  Versaceyoyo is flooding me with taste testing and we will both be either buying a size larger or joining Weight Watchers.  Thanks for the welcomes, Mil

My DIL recently started querying me about an extraordinary blender/cooker I had way back in the 70's when my son was about 5 years old.  Between us we worked out it was a Thermomix - and need I say more -she had the research mode going full bore and in less than a month since raising the subject she has joined the TMX Forum (Versace Yo Yo) , had a demo, bought a machine and convinced me to do the same - I did not take much pushing.  Can hardly wait till Sunday when I have my own demo and will own my very new Thermomix.  Compared with the original model this one is like a Ferrari compared to a Mini Minor - but can't knock my old model it did a mighty job making perfect custards for my two fussy eater sons and wonderful sauces and soups for my husband and myself.  As a lucky MIL with a very cluey DIL I felt Mil was a pretty appropriate user name for this wonderful forum site and look forward to benefiting from all the experience floating about out there in cyberspace - No longer green with envy, Mil.
