Congratulations chickie. I don't think you we're the first to use 'gentle persuasion' and I know you won't be the last  :o  :o  ???. All those poor husbands out there!! Mind you, I don't hear too many of them complaining about their dinner!! Have a fantastic day on Tuesday!

Welcome Chickie. What a sensible idea to take the day off. I'm sure you will have a fun day.

Thank you everyone for the lovely welcome. Only one more sleep and my thermie is arriving!!

The online company I used to purchase my grains etc is called 2 brothers. They seem reasonably priced and deliver for 3.50 in Perth. My ingredients should be here today so not sure about the quality yet.

I've been doing a lot of research on here for tips, tricks and recipes. This is such a great site for information, I'm very lucky that I found it :) Thank you to everyone who contributes and I hope one day I'll be experienced enough to make a worthwhile contribution to the forum.

Welcome Chickie.  I'm Chookie so you must make some of my recipes.  You know , like mother , like daughter. ;D. I have posted some Indian recipes.  The Naan seems to be quite popular.  I also make the Madras Curry powder from the Indian Book.   If you need any help,  Mum is usually here,  however if not,  there are lots of Aunties who will help. ;D

It's arrived!!

Thanks everyone, yesterday was a huge success with my new thermie :)

Hi Chookie, I definetly will be giving many of your recipes a go  ;D I tried two of them yesterday - Indian Patties and Naan. Everyone really loved them - especially the naan. The kids only wanted to eat that for dinner and DH said its the best he's had. ( hence he is now very impressed with the thermie :) )

I also made JD's Thai chilli chicken and basil which DH said was restaurant quality!! Some raita to go with the patties, some brown rice and beef massaman. After all of that I was too worn out and family was too full to make the sorbet - will make tonight.

I can safely say I am officially obsessed with my thermomix haha.
