HeLLLLLLLLO from most enthusiastic NEW Thermomix user in CANADA!
« on: September 09, 2009, 06:05:51 am »
Well, I'm excited and nervous to be joining this active bunch of TMixers here in cyberspace. I haven't left the kitchen since getting my Bimby about a month ago. I figure now it's time to come up for air and say "hello".

I live on a (relatively large) island off the west coast, but NOBODY here knows about Thermomix. Not even the foodies! So...as you know, the Thermo fever can get to you, and it sure has got me... I'm even starting a new blog site to tell Canadians about it. ( not sure if I'm allowed to mention that here or not ??? ). I expect to be stuck in this fabulous forum all day long, while you Aussies are sleeping.... but I'm sure our paths will cross some time...

Cheers to you all from across the big pond!

Thank you Amanda! I am hoping to do my part to boost the numbers here. I can not understand why it hasn't caught on. This machine is amazing. It really has changed how I cook... and I was quite resistant to start... but am a softy for the Thermie now.

Thanks to all for the lovely welcome!

I have just added my blog address to the signature.  But... there's not much to see yet... EXCEPT that I am collecting testimonials to show the Canadians up here what they are missing out on. I have put a contest on the site with prizes for to be drawn from those submissions... Smoked Salmon from Salt Spring Island...  :P  It is a delicacy from British Columbia... Not to worry, it's specially sealed for shipping and yes, I can send this by mail to anywhere... so feel free to submit your thoughts and who knows.. you might get some salmon in the mail. Oh yes, and of course, anyone who submits a testimonial will get a link to their own blog if they have one. That's how we do it here...

Anyhow, I'm happy to be in this forum meeting lovely people from far away who understand my new obsession. Isn't it interesting how we can bond with a kitchen appliance? Quite surprising really.

Oh Helene I am so pleased you are going to be active on this forum. You will be able to post some of your lovely recipes here.  How about one for fresh salmon steaks  in theVaroma?  We are lucky in Australia to have a very good salmon farming industry in Tasmania not as tasty as wild caught but readily available.

Cheers,
