I'm so excited!!
« on: June 11, 2012, 03:45:27 am »
Hi everyone!!
I've just placed my Thermomix order after having a demo on Saturday - I'm soooo excited and can hardly wait for delivery!!! Thrawling through recipes to figure out what I'm going to cook first  :D

I'm in Auckland, New Zealand, though originally from Denmark, and living here with my 3 young kids and army husband - I'm sure the Thermomix will be a life saver when hubby is away and I've got to get dinner ready with 3 kids demanding my time and attention at the same time.

Anyway, nice to meet you all :)

Hello MamaMix, welcome to the forum.  I don't think we have many members from New Zealand so I'm not sure how well known the TMX is down there.  You will certainly enjoy your new purchase and it will be handy having time for the children whilst the machine is cooking and stirring their meals.

Welcome to the forum Mamamix.
I'm married to a Kiwi - From the Sth Isle (shakey Christchurch) go back for visits about twice a year and for rugby matches.
I'm sure you will find TMX very helpful with three young children and DH away at times.
Lots of great kid friendly recipes too.

Welcome to the forum MamaMix.  I don't know how old your children are but you may like to get them involved with your new machine if they are old enough.

Yeah I don't think Thermomix has really taken off yet over here - I first heard about it through an Australian blog. There are only 18 consultants in the whole country so far, mine had only done two demos before mine.

My girl is 4, and my boys turn 1 and 3 next week, so still a little too young to help out. I've got my fingers crossed that the Thermomix gets delivered in time for me to create some yummy birthday dishes with it :)

Hi Mamamix and welcome.

Congratulations on ordering your TMX. I'm sure it is going to be a big help for you and your family. And if you ever need help this is the best place to visit as everyone is friendly and helpful. I only hope the wait for its arrival is not too painful for you.

Mamamix you live in such a beautiful country. We love coming on holiday to NZ from Tasmania and I can't wait to come back as we always have a great time there.

Cheers :)

Hi Mamamix - and a very warm welcome to the forum.  You really will wonder how you ever lived without the TMX in your kitchen!!  Have you  ever given some thought about becoming a consultant yourself with so few there at the moment?  Good luck and let's know how you're going.   :D

Hi mammamix :)

I've only had my Thermie for a week now but he's made himself at home. I've made so much already with a lifetime to go - so excited for you:)

It's so cool to meet all you fellow Thermo-enthusiasts on here :) Been the longest two days ever, waiting to hear when my Thermomix will be delivered!  ???
I was wondering if anyone have suggestions of what to cook first once it arrives?? I can see that quite a few recipes from EDC need tweaking, so I'm keen to try a fool proof recipe  ;D My hubby needed some convincing before I was able to put my order in (our demonstrator is quite new and probably didn't sell it as well as she could, I was more convinced by my own research than her demo) - so I really want to impress him and convince him it's a great investment!!

I am not a real risotto fan MamaMix but this creamy prawn risotto is a real winner in this household.
