CC, that looks great.
Could you send me a copy of the Elder Flower Cordial, please. Our elders are flowering now and this will be my last chance to make the cordial.

I love the contents of this book Denise, it's so different to ours.

[Cornish Cream]

I'm very impressed with the book girls.
I'll send you the recipe Chookie.

[achookwoman]

Thanks CC.

[cookie1]

It's certainly an impressive list. Good on them.

[trudy]

Chookie, where did you buy the elderflower plant?

CC, do you know if they are selling these books yet or do you still have to have a demo?

[Bedlam]

Yum CC, lots of interesting recipes. I like the sound of horseradish and chickpea dip.

The book was released for sale on Friday Trudy.

Chookie, where did you buy the elderflower plant?

I bought a plant and it died.  Can't remember where I bought it. This one grew by its self. Before I realized what it was, I tried to cut it out.  It just grew bigger.

It looks like a lovely book. It will take you a while to work through that list, very impressive!

[trudy]

Thanks Bess.  I did know that it can grow into a big tree but thought that I might try it in a large tub.  Had fritters once make in Italy and they were lovely.  They just made a sweet batter and dipped the flowers whole into it, then fried and sprinkled with icing sugar!!

[achookwoman]

Trudy, the Elderberry trees grow wild in our area.   I have made the fritters from the flowers, was a bit disappointed with them.   Probably my cooking.

It is really frustrating that Thermomix UK won't sell us this book and send to Australia. They suggested I ask a friend in the UK to forward it on to me! They said they are "not allowed" to sell it outside their area. I guess that is to protect Thermomix Australia just in case they want to sell it. Or not. It seems very restrictive and makes me grumpy!
It is such a restrictive method of customer service.

I agree that it's a shame that this book can't be sent out here.  I have had no problem in the past except for the DVD that they put out a few years ago but never with books.
