Hi from South West Victoria
« on: July 27, 2012, 02:57:25 am »
Hi, My name is Melissa, but my friends call me Merl (there were too many others called Mel when I was at school, so I got something different!) I am 30yrs old, married for nearly 8yrs, have 2 beautiful girls, (2.5 & 4.5yrs old) and am a part time primary teacher.

I just got my Thermomix this week and I am super excited about it!! I made strawberry sorbet, a savoury mince and pesto dip the first night. I have had a bit of a look around the forum already and love that there are so many tips and recipes on here.

I have cut out as much sugar as possible in our house this year, so I am looking forward to all the healthy meals I can quickly and easily make in the Thermomix.

Cheers, Merl

Welcome Merl. Please feel free to ask for any help you need and to share your successes and failures. We even have an 'oops' group of posts in Chit Chat.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
