Hello from another soon-to-be owner
« on: March 29, 2011, 05:01:57 am »
Hello everyone

My name is Sofia and I ordered my Thermomix yesterday and it will arrive in time for my home demo Friday night. I am so excited!

I've been searching through all the recipes on this forum and watching lots of youtube videos. The information/recipes on this forum definitely helped me make my decision to purchase one.

The recipe and shopping lists are getting longer as I keep adding new things to try. I'm guessing one of the first things I make will be a strawberry smoothie or sorbet for my daughter  :)

Waiting *impatiently* until Friday evening.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you.

Welcome allthingscraft. I'm sure you are eagerly waiting for Friday. Welcome to the forum.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Today's your big day. I only got mine three weeks ago, I hardly slept the night before it arrived. I use my Thermomix a lot, best buy ever!
Enjoy and have loads of fun this weekend! :D

Hello Sofia , Snap! I just ordered my Thermomix same day as you, being delivered next Friday.  Prior to my purchase I had been researching this forum and was very impressed with the wealth of information here and the range of recipes. 
We should swap our first impressions once our new TM's arrive!  :D Cheers Kathy (aka fujicat707)

Ok demo last Friday night went really well. Everyone who came was suitably impressed with this wonder machine! My thermomix was used during the demo so I definitely got a feel for it.

Saturday began the big cooking day   ;)
- pikelets from EDC
- Citrus smoothie from quirkyjo's blog
- Isi's Portuguese rolls
- hummus from EDC
- steamed vegies to try out varoma

We've enjoyed fresh smoothies for brekky each morning. Monday I tried spaghetti and meatballs - steaming the meatballs and I put pasta sauce in the top tray (using wet baking paper)

Yesterday was a baking day with Nay-Nay's fruit bars.

I love this machine   ;D  The information on this forum is awesome. Everything I've made so far has worked perfectly and tasted fantastic.

How's your new machine going Kathy?

My "Arnie" hasnt arrived yet .... still waiting for delivery, should be this Friday hopefully .... Seems like an eternity.  Is it just me or is there so many things to try first!  :D. Am spending the wait gainfully by clearing out my small pantry, got new containers today, plus need to go through my fridge and remove all circa WWII food items .. Tee hee!
