What do you call him/her/it?
« on: March 15, 2013, 07:46:17 pm »
I'm just under three weeks into being a Thermomix owner and already I don't know how I ever managed without her (yes, definitely a 'her').
I've named her Thermione (being a big Harry Potter fan) and I wondered what names others have given to their Thermomixes (or should that be 'Thermomixi'?)

Hahaha, Thermione!  Love it!!
Probably already on the other thread, but I'm quite partial to "Dobby the house elf" too. 

Mine's usually just refered to as The Machine, or abbreviated to "the 'chine" but miss3

Don't worry about it. So is so much on here it is impossible to read all of it, unless you were a member when it was written.  :D
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
