Hello from the red centre
« on: August 10, 2012, 02:26:08 pm »
Hi Everyone,

I have had my Thermie since Christmas last year and have just decided to use the forum, though have trolled a few times to find recipes. I was very lucky to have Thermie given to me as a Christmas present. I live in the Pilbara region of WA, and thoroughly enjoy living here. I don't use my Thermie perhaps as much as I should, because I live on my own and often don't eat at home and I am often eating as I am heading out the door to do the next thing on my ever growing list of jobs to get done. I am trying now to get into the habit of using him to help me to eat healthier, and to save money on take-out.

There is not a lot more I can really tell you about myself. BUT I am looking forward to learning some new recipes and having a much larger recipe base to use for my weekly meals.

Hi Span, welcome to the forum.  It would be hard to get motivated to cook much if you live alone but this forum often provides the inspiration to do just that.  Let's hope it works for you so that you can really get the benefit from your purchase.

Welcome to the forum Span, I think I would find it difficult to get in to a routine of cooking for myself if I was the only one. Even now most of the cooking I do is for the other members of the family for school and work (except evening meal)
There are some amazing recipes on here though, and lots that can be frozen into portions.

Hi Span - and welcome to the forum!  I'm sure you'll find all the help and advice you'll ever need on here.  The more you use your TMX the more comfortable you'll become adjusting this recipe and that one - and the quantities - to suit your own needs.  Good luck!! :D

Welcome Span. When I saw 'red centre' I thought around Alice Springs but then the Pilbara is definitely as red. In face it is a beautiful colour red. Are the Sturt Peas out yet around where you live?
Hopefully we can help you with cooking for one ideas.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

You're right there Cookie, I am not really in the centre, but just on the edge of the Western Desert, I'm not a coastal Pilbarite :)

Thanks for the warm welcome. Joining the forum has paid off, I cooked two meals in Thermie today, so my freezer is nice and full of lunches for work for next week.

Welcome to the forum Span. Someone very nice must have really loved you to give you a Thermomix for Christmas.

Why don't you pop over to the Why did you choose your forum name thread and tell us all how you choose Span as your forum name.
