Hi from Adelaide! I'm a newbie and I don't have a TMX.
« on: July 10, 2012, 02:29:21 am »
Hi all,

I'm Cheng, a mum with 2 kids DS 3 yo and DD 2yo. I must confessed I don't have a Thermomix. After I read some hero members reviews. there is a HMP Gastro in my kitchen at the moment. Very excited to learning a new way to prepare more than just meals. The first section I read here are non food bits. I love the idea making laundry powder with velvet soaps lol

So please be gentle with me :) I will try not asking too many silly questions. I love this place already, so many lovely people and much to learn :D

On the learning note, would anyone have tips on meals plan for kids with colds and coughs? Both mine are a bit sick so my body is still quite tired at the moment. TIA.

Cheng

Hi Cheng, welcome to our forum.  We are first and foremost a TMX forum but do have a few members with other machines and have welcomed them with open arms.  There are many people interested in the HPM machine so they will probably following your postings with interest.   Our recipes are for the TMX so you may need to adapt them to your machine as they are all a little different.
You sound as if you have an Asian background so your beautiful chicken stock soups would be ideal for your children if they are unwell.  Perhaps try my chicken and veggie soup recipe - it seems to be popular with members.  Enjoy your time on here.

Hi Cheng and welcome to the forum. And don't worry about silly questions as we all ask question we think are a bit silly, but as we say there are no silly questions so ask away.
We will be interested in your comments on the HMP as only a couple of members have them and it's still all new to the rest of us.
Hope your kids feel better soon :)

Thank you all for your warm welcome posts.

I made porridge for breaky today but DS didn't have appetite for it. Soup at lunch time was a battle. So I made bread - Taiwan bread because I know he loves bread. He ate some and we love it too. Was quite happy with myself. Hopefully I can have more success with bread making as I usually stuff them up.

Here is a photo :)

Your bread looks great.
