That is so lovely to hear Chelsea! What a wonderful daughter you are.
Passionflower, all the best in your reaching your goal, too.
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Super!!! What a lovely surprise!  I think I might need to get one for my Mom too.  She still has no idea what a Thermomix is, in spite of my constant excited chatter to her on the telephone every day...

There are so many feel good moments in our daily lives as a result of this forum and both Chelsea and Passionflower have transformed the moment to a wonderful day for us all. Thank you both - your families are truly blessed :)  :)

Oh Happy Days!!! Check out my photo below.  ;D ;D ;D

Mum's thermomix (and my second bowl) arrived yesterday.  My consultant came and unpacked it for me - she rinsed and checked it but didn't think we needed to do the normal delivery run through ;) ;D.   I am having great fun playing with both machines until we head to QLD on Saturday.  Mum and Dad arrive home from their trip while we are away.  I will be busting to get home from QLD to give Mum her pressie!

Hubby and I are just amazed at how shiny our new bowl is. I am also amazed at how powerful (and noisy) Mum's machine is.  I hadn't realised my machine had slowed quite so much. I guess I have used it a wee little bit over the past two and a half years.  :-)) :-))

What a pity you are going to miss each other Chelsea - couldn't you just put it in her kitchen and surprise her when she gets home?  Have a great holiday but hurry back so that you can tell us Mum's reaction to your generosity.

Chelsea you are so generous and kind hearted, Your mum is going to be so excited (Maybe even more than you are lol) And you and your Hubby obviously have huge hearts to be so generous.
Lots of fun will be had with all the cooking you and your mum will be doing together.

Thanks all. Mum is going to get the surprise of her life. I honestly don't know what she is going to say. I will let you all know though. When I give it to her Hubby is going to take Dad and our boys out for the arvo so we can have some time cooking together.

The TM's do look great sitting together.  I don't think I will miss Mum's machine when it goes to her house though.  I always thought I would buy another TM if I won the lotto, but after having both machines going for almost two hours today I have changed my mind. I made an enormous amount of food, but my kitchen was a mess and I was exhausted at the end. When I am working with one machine I have time to put ingredients away, pack the dishwasher and tidy up as I go.  With two machines I was going flat chat to keep up with them. I think perhaps just two bowls is enough (for me anyway).  :)

lol Chelsea, I think one TM would be more than enough. I can imagine the chaos with 2 going together.
