How excitement!!
« on: October 28, 2010, 12:23:14 pm »
Hi everyone

I ordered my TMX today and it arrives at 7pm on Saturday. Not that I'm counting down or anything!!

I went to a friend's demo about 8 weeks ago and before I went, I told her I didn't want one but just wanted to see what all the hype was about...and here I am, soon to be owner and very possibly demonstrator as well!!

I've been reading the forums since the demo and doing some 'research' before I bought one and now I feel like I can finally contribute to them!

I stumbled across Cindy O'Meara through the TMX newsletter and realised I'd been looking for a book like hers for about 5 years!! I have a 15 month old son and just want to make sure that we as a family don't eat too much of this artificial stuff that big companies are putting in our food.  >:( TMX is going to make life easier I hope. Especially as I'm due back at work next year!!

I look forward to learning lots more from this forum and testing it all out on my new machine.  ;D

Roll on Saturday night!

PS I'm in Perth

Hey Jules, I'm so excited I could scream! Mines being delivered tomorrow 11.30!!!
I have wanted one for years and now thanks to my wonderful parents I'm getting
my own!! I borrowed mums one for about 2 months and got so much use out of it!
My kids are hanging for me to make their boost juices again so I think that will be first!
Yay yay yay roll on tomorrow! You have fun with yours on the weekend!

Thanks for the welcome everyone

Julia, I read the whole thread about your TMX and how you borrowed your parents' one and then they bought you one!! How lovely!!! Hubby is out this evening so I'm surfing the forums and blogs to see what to cook first.......there's too much to choose from!! I asked my husband what I should make first and he said cocktails!! Typical!!

Have a great weekend with your TMX. Have you got a name for yours? Mine is going to be called Theo....unless it doesnt look like a Theo, then I'll have to think of something else  ;)

Congratulations girls. It's the best feeling in the world to own a Thermomix. Your whole lifestyle can change for the better. Wait till you start seeing the change in your grocery bill. OMG!!!  I've done 3 weekly shops since I got mine and I have reduced my bill more and more every week.  Even stopped doing the extra visits to the shops in between the full shop. Cant even begin to calculate the savings.

Where in Perth are you JuJu? Did you know there's a Perth get together tomorrow on the South Perth foreshore?

Hi Jodi

Yes I did know about the get together as I've been reading the forum for a while now!! I'm just in Manning so I'm not even 10 mins away. I'm meeting my mum at Carousel at 11ish but have been contemplating coming along. Will see how quickly we get organised in the morning and I might make it. Its near the fenced in playground isnt it? Might pop my head in if I can find you guys.

Would be great if you could pop in. Even if it's only for a short visit.  I can't stay too long myself. Got a million things to do but I'm sure I'll get the important stuff done.

Hope you can make it.

Welcome, can guess what you'll be doing on Sunday.
Have you chosen your first thing to cook yet?

Welcome JuJu. I do hope you can make it this morning. Otherwise we'll have to meet for a coffee one day....at Carousel. It is my usual Friday morning haunt.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Welcome JuJu.
I'm new too and never finding enough time to view all the recipes plus being side tracked with the accompanying blogs....  :D
This is a great forum, loads of nice people  :)
