Pround New Owner from Calgary, Alberta Canada
« on: June 27, 2010, 09:26:21 pm »
Hi everyone, have had our Thermomix for about a month now - lurked on the forum before & after purchase but finally got around to registering.

Fantastic resource here - and great to be part of an international community.

I am a food (and gadget) junkie so discovering this amazing machine a couple of months ago it didn't take long before I succumbed to becoming an owner of one.

Managed to get rid of my old Cuisinart, a scale, a Vitamix so far. Still hanging on to my Kenwood Chef since we use it for the strainer and it has a sausage stuffer etc but could almost be without it too if I had to.

Risottos are wonderful, custards, ice cream/sorbet, soups of course - still lots of exploring to do and looking forward to being part of the forum.

Cheers from Canada,

Llyn Strelau

Welcome Llyn it is lovely to add another Canadian to our group of Thermaholics.

Welcome!! This is a great place for sharing and caring... :)
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Hi Llyn!!!

I've been so busy lately and sadly, not able to visit the forum very often but I dropped in just now and there you were! We here in Canada are SOOOO happy to have another Canadian on board. Yippeeee, glad to meet you.  :-* ;) :-*

Glad to hear you are having fun exploring your TMX. I loved hearing that you sold a Vitamix after getting it!   ;D
