Interesting books Cookie.  I think I have converted a Paul Hollywood recipe.
Bought 2 light bed quilts yesterday. Also 2 pot planters for the front veranda. Will take photos when we get home.

Yes Chookie you have converted a Paul Hollywood recipe. I'm naughty I tend to look at the recipe and just make it in the thermomix.
Take care in the heat today.

Bought 2 more books when in Melbourne.  DJ’s had %30 off.
Have already made one from Maggies book. Will convert a couple to TMX as I make them.

Me also, although I love what is inside.

Cookie, it is well worth considering.   I have gone off Maggie’s  recipes over the last few years. Not sure why.    This one is much closer to the food I like to cook.
She has been ill and had a serious operation and has lost a lot of weight.  The recipes reflect a change of lifestyle.

Thanks Chookie. I still have a lot of Dymocks vouchers from Christmas so I will look seriously at it. I had noticed she had  lost a lot of weight.

my DH book me that Maggies cookbook on Wednesday, and a new one from Matt Moran as well.
My Thermomix,  Kitchen Aid, Pizza oven, Nu Wave 5 in 1, Spatulas, all brings love, laughter, happiness, and great food  to my kitchen.

Wow Robyn. MY DH never buys me a book of any kind unless I am with him as he knows I may have it. A sensible idea. What is the Matt Moran book like? I have seen it round but have never tried any of his recipes.
