I am so excited

[audrey61]

I am so excited. I have ordered my theromomix and with baited breath wait its arrival. I have contemplated this purchase for over a year (wonderful, patient consultant). I am a real foodie and amongst many comments I was told as such I would miss the mechanics of preparation. Now I want the experience of great food in the most easiest possible way.....cant wait and look forward to looking up many special recipes shared by others. Wahooo.....

Glad you finally took the plunge Audrey, welcome to the forum. We all love cooking but if we can do it faster, it leaves us more time to do other things that we also enjoy - the best of both worlds.

Welcome Audrey. I don't think you will miss the mechanics of preparation that much.  They will just be new and different mechanics and you'll be making more. HOw long until you receive your machine?

Welcome Audrey61,

If you miss the mechanics of cooking you can always do it by hand once a week

[gotta cook]

I love cooking too  and this machine has only made me more enthusiastic! I've had mine 2 weeks almost and have started making all our bread, gone crazy at the organic supermarket buying seeds and grains then off to the Indian grocer for spices! WOW! I certainly don't miss chopping onions etc and have successfully made things which I wouldn't have bothered trying before( or had failed miserably at- Gnocchi for example)

So go for it and you will be keener to cook than ever before I think.

Welcome audrey - all good things come to those who wait. We hope you find this forum helpful and inspiring. We also look forward to trying out any converted recipes once you settle in

Welcome hope your wait isn't too long.
Think of how much more you'll be able to cook. And hey if you really want to chop and onion then you always still can.

Hi Audrey,
Congratulations!  I too was a "cook from scratch the old fashioned way" girl but I don't miss the old ways one bit.  In fact, I cook SOOOOO much more now than ever and I am still cooking from scratch but in a different way.

I've only had my TM for 2 weeks so I'm not too far ahead of you. 

I'm in Perth too! Where abouts are you? I'm in Alexander Heights.

Good luck and have lots of fun!  Don't be scared and if you have any troubles at all, jump on here so the girls can help solve them. And we want to hear all your successes too!

 

[Very Happy Jan]

Welcome Audrey61. I doubt you will have time to miss the mechanics of preparation as you will be able to cook so many more things in a day. It's great fun, so happy cooking
