Hi All,
I am very excited to have found this site and beside myself with excitement awaiting my thermomix, next week can't get here fast enough.  I first saw it in action about six months ago when a friend held a demo and loved it then and there!!!  I had heard about this miracle machine but really couldn't imagine how it could do all this stuff so was very impressed that day and had to have one.  The timing wasn't good with renovations in full swing and the $$$$ pouring out the door hence the long wait (long to me anyway).
I love to cook and my only hesitation has been that I would be restricted to following the TM recipe books but you all have shown me that is not the case so I hope to one day be contributing but in the meantime look forward to trying all your great ideas while I get to know my TM.
I guess on the most part I am really excited about being able to use whole foods as I am a Mum of a two year old and I like to know what is going into his little body.  I know I will do things that I wouldn't otherwise have time for like bread, and I am hoping that my husband who is somewhat challenged in the kitchen may come to have one or two as he puts it "signature dishes" when he sees how easy it is.  Anyway thank you for the warm welcome to this site the first I have ever joined and look forward to getting to know you all.
Renee
