Hi Susan,
So nice to hear that you're finally cooking with it! What was the first meal you cooked with your new Thermomix?
I've had my Thermie for eight months now and can easily say it changed my life. Bold statement, but this summer I started to grow my own vegetables, since two weeks I work only 40% (used to work three days a week, now only two) so I have more time to cook and try new things with the Thermomix. Never thought this would happen.
It's like you start a journey when you buy one, and I am still discovering new places.....love the ride!! It's just a shame that here in Holland the Thermomix is quite unknown, and even 'spreading the word' doesn't really help. I thought of becoming a consultant here, but for now I have to be honest and say that I so much like to spend my extra free time cooking.....I did start a blog however, just yesterday.
Anyway, too much about me, this should be all about you and your new Thermomix!!!! I truly hope you enjoy your Thermie as much as everybody here on this forum!!!
