You poor thing - lucky you're not a man - it's MUCH worse for us  ;) ;) ;) :D ;D  :-))

Yeah - you guys get it BAADDDD don't you.  So glad I'm of the fairer sex  ;)  :-)) ha ha ha!!  :D :D :D

Today I haven't done much as we had a girls/ladies day shopping.  Mums cousin is out from Ireland - and guess what she'll be doing when she gets back - yep contacting UK Thermomix!  Well with Mum, my Aunt and I all having one, she just couldn't ignore it  ;) ;D ;D Tell you what, it's the best investment I've ever made!

Well I have finally made the washing machine soap and the dishwasher goo.  Gosh! I can't believe how easy the washing machine soap is. And my  *: - it's so sparkly and clean  ;D ;D ;D  I'm very impressed.  And cheap!!!

I'll be taking some washing machine soap out to dinner tomorrow night (as you do...  :-)) ??? ) for Mum and Aunty to try and perhaps then they can make some for themselves.   ;)

(trying the quote thing - hope it works)

Me too!  and load is on now.  Will see how it goes.   Didn't have a big enough bottle though (filled 2ltr bottle and then some) and made a bit of a mess in the kitchen :-)).
Made yoghurt last night and did with low fat milk and only had a little bit of milk powder in the back of the cupboard.  Worked out ok, a little thin, but sometimes it would come out like that using the esiyo mixes as well.  Up vey late doing it as it took nearly 1 1/2 hrs to cool down enough for me to add culture!

Ohh that was one thing I did forget to post - that it took ages to cool down when I said to make sure it was cool enough to add the culture - sorry everyone :-[ :-[. I think I will go back and see if I can edit the post so no one else gets caught. I was caught the first time as well and had a really late night :P

Most others said it would take over/around 1/2 hr too Faffa70, so I thought it was just me!  :-\  I did have to nap on the couch while I was waiting  ;D.  I took the bowl out of the machine and on the cold sink to speed it up and in the end I stuck the bowl in the fridge for a while!!  Thought that might stuff it up but was a bit tired and grumpy by that stage!! :-\.

Must not laugh............... (ha ha ha )I worked with a gentleman who used to say this frequently. The worst part was that he really meant it. He had the most beautiful nails. I guess we were all jealous.

I am so glad to FINALLY join this thread!  Yes we have a TMX and it's chugging away right now.

Today we have made strawberry sorbet, anzac biscuits, vegie stock concentrate is cooking now, will do mashed potatoes and custard for tea.

I am so in love with this machine.  We just did a grocery shop and it was full of fruit, veg and spices. 

I milled the flour for the biscuits from organic wheat, so impressed at how fine it was.  No more bought flour in my house!

Brazen....  :-))  That doesn't really count does it????  :D :D ;)

Today I made the Speedy Spelt bread, Rice/Almond milk (with a few tweaks - I'll post in the Rice Milk posting), porridge and pumpkin soup for lunch.

Then we were shouted out for dinner at an Italian restaurant in town - lovely!

Today we have made porridge, banana and mango smoothie, garam masala, carrot pickle and curry veg fritters are cooking now.  Rest of the days plans are potato and leek soup, pumpkin and pulse curry and a banana custard.  This is fun!
