Dr Tal: Yes I found you - thanks for the message, and thanks to everyone else for the congrats in the messages - I didn't know they were there till Dr Tal told me about them

In the thermomix, I grind my own spices and toast them, grate hard cheeses and chop anything you can think of...I make sorbet and icecream and it all takes almost no time at all. They were originally invented to make preservative free baby food, then people discovered so many more uses for them. All this talk of pumpkin soup has made me want to have it for dinner too, I think I might - thermomix makes soup too yum yum.
