Well I am not missing in action any longer. DH and I have just made a surprise visit to JD and her DH. It was so nice to catch up again. Sorry we couldn't make it to the general morning tea you all enjoyed, but too many other commitments. You talk to a lot of people on the Forum and you feel you know them, then you meet them in person and and you know you were right, it is as if you have been friends all your life. it is amazing that a little machine like the TMX can work such wonders. We have visited the Adelaide Central Market and to those of you who live here there is a wonderful shop that sells a great mix of different grains and flakes. Excellent for bread making. Another busy day tomorrow and then home to Victoria again.

What a lovely day we had too Chookie - these are the sort of surprises I like. Your timing was impeccable - last week you would not have found us home on any given day with all we had on. I think we just picked up from the last time we met in Melbourne and it is always lovely to see you and your gorgeous DH.

Spent another afternoon with Chookie & DH - invited them to lunch. Just how many hours can females talk about food - as many as you can spare

Was nice to be able to serve some desserts I had in the freezer that Chookie hadn't tried herself.
Thanks for the lightening visit Chookie.

How lucky for you JD. It's nice to catch up with people that you know that you rarely get to see. Especially so when it's a fellow TMXer. Bet no cooking term was left unturned.

No and I now have 3 more websites to browse for recipes too

Twitterpated · « **Reply #22 on:** August 14, 2011, 10:05:21 am »

What websites? Are you going to share?

achookwoman · « **Reply #23 on:** August 14, 2011, 10:25:37 am »

DH and I really benefited from Judy's TMX and freezer. She produced a fantastic meal at short notice and I was able to try many things that I haven't had a chance to make. Could be a good idea for 'get togethers'. That is to each take a different dish. Judy's choice ranges much wider than mine, so is much more interesting. I tend to be more narrow in what I make and didn't realise this until I experienced Judy's cooking. Thank you Judy.

You are too humble Chookie - I would just be an apprentice compared to your cooking skills. Glad you enjoyed it though.

Twitterpated, Chookie has an iPad app for Gourmet Traveller but you can find recipes here on their website.
We also discussed Epicurious and Fisher Paykel Our Kitchen.
None of them TMX of course but obviously there are always recipes to be found to convert.

What a lovely surprise for you Judy to have Chookie and her DH for lunch.Don't know if I would have pulled that off at short notice,we would have ended up in the local pub.

What a brilliant weekend you two girls have had! I imagine it was very difficult to separate at the end of the visit.
I'm so happy for you both that you were able to catch up again.

Frozzie · « **Reply #27 on:** August 14, 2011, 07:14:12 pm »

So happy for you girls to have caught up and spent a couple of days together

..and Judy you need to stop thinking your less than what you are, which is a great cook who is ready to try almost any new recipe and post back

I have seen mothers cook rings around some trained professionals and even once a couple of teenagers who were more experienced for their age than most adults (in the kitchen lol)!

Thanks to everyone on the Forum for all the good wishes for our short holiday. It is about 700K from where we live to Adelaide. One stop over night, on the way, but easy driving and a bit warmer in Adelaide than in the hills where we live. I found it really interesting to see someone else using their TMX in a domestic circumstance. Having seen Judy use her machine so efficiently was a real bonus. We certainly learn from each other. Hope other member do get a chance to have a similar experience.

What a lovely surprise JD to have Chookie drop in. It is always good with the TM to be able to something that another TM owner hasn't tried.
