I finally got my candles, would you believe the delivery driver actually signed for my parcel and then when he had 'time' he delivered it, the company I bought it from were wonderful they credited me back straight away 2wks ago when I told them it hadn't arrived and Australia post said it had been signed for and delivered so not their problem, until I sent them a very stern e-mail and after they looked into it discovered what had happened, then I had to ring the company back and ask them to debit my cc  :-)) what a debacle.

Any way today I had Lily's new skirt and pettiskirt delivered, she was beyond excited she is such a girly girl   :)

Had a look on e bay for the pasta maker, is it a rectangular shape it is not what I pictured it would like?

I am a bit confused, I have always either under or overcooked pasta until getting my TMX, now I have perfect pasta every time.

maybe if the TM is in use or  running late on dinner just pop it in the M/V

i mainly use TM for cooking 500g of pasta and only 1/2 cook it i like to add it to hot  sauce on the stove top and mix well
i don't need a recipe i'm italian

I usually cook my rice in the microwave in the dish I am serving it in .

Unless its an all in one pasta dish, the jug is cooking the sauce whilst pasta is on the stove...just quicker and timed together  ;)
