Hi from Canada

[Tebasile]

Hi there,

I'm happy to see a raw food section here. I'm original from Germany and use the thermomix for more than 11 years. We've lived five years in the States and for almost five in Canada. I love raw, vegan and local vegetarian food. I'm an consultant in Ontario and a Certified Living on Live Food Chef. More and more people ask me to share my recipes in english instead german 

Cheers,
Elisabeth

Oh hi and welcome Elisabeth.  You have so much more experience than most of us - we are all newbies compared to you.  Lovely that you have joined us and can perhaps contribute some recipes/hints along the way.

How wonderful that you have joined us Elisabeth. We look forward to your postings. I am sure you can teach us a lot.

Welcome Elisabeth - I am sure that you are going to be a great asset to our forum.

Hope we can get more raw recipes up on the forum.

Hi Elisabeth and welcome. Wow you really are a veteran TMX owner compare to most of us!

Hi Elisabeth - welcome to the forum.  It is a fabulous forum as well.  I am sure you can teach us a few things after using it for 11 years.

Welcome Elisabeth. Do you still enjoy your Thermomix after 11 years? We're almost all new owners and are very addicted.

Hi and welcome - I have my thermomix only 8 days but LOVE it!
Looking forward to hearing all you have cooked and your all time favourites!

Hi Elisabeth!

Ich bin auch von Kanada! Ich wohne in Victoria, BC und ich bin NICHT Deutsch! My father was German though, and I learned to speak the language from my grandmother when I went to Darmstadt often to visit her as a child.

I am happy to meet you here. This is a fantastic forum, and we can learn so much here. But I am a new student, and you will be one of the "teachers" here for sure...  I received my Thermomix in the last days of August and I have been so excited about it that I started a blog... and the blog became a site... and now I dont' have time for anything else. I am trying to help more people in western Canada to learn about Thermomix because we are so very far behind other countries... Hope we meet again soon...
Tchuss,

Helene you are a hoot. Where on earth did you find the sand video? This would be great for those people who want a sandbox filled with the finest grains of sand.

What else can we do with this machine which does not involve food?

Gretchen

Ah yes, the sand video...   For all those who want "Gourmet Thermomix Sand" for their private beaches, you can order some up for yourself here: http://SuperKitchenMachine.com/2009/352/make-fine-sand.html

Maybe one day dear Gretchen, you and I will put our tired bums down on some gourmet sandy beach and sip a cold Thermomixed drink, suck on some smoked salmon samples, and giggle our way into the Aussie sunset.

You think I'm a hoot! Just for the record: I am pedaling my hooty bike as fast as I can to keep up with you Aussies, believe you me! I think (and this is just a theory) that you get more sunshine than we do, and so you are all a tad more 'lively' down there in the land of Oz...

Truly, it is quite the cultural education to have landed unsuspectingly into this warm and fuzzy and very lively Aussie forum. I feel like I'm at a big Thermomix Barby feast, (isn't that what you call them?) and everyone is wearing shorts and sandals, except me... I'm in my snow parka with my beaver-skinned hat and my mittens on... and.. (here's the best part) we are all laughing together!

bye for now,
TMB
