Henry,
What are you having for lunch? I just finished a tuna fish croissant and a bag of Doritos.
Suzie
Suzie,
It looks like a vegetable pie of some kind. Cherie made it in the
Thermomix.
Henry
What is a Thermomix?
It's an $800 blender.
How did you get it? This is fascinating.
In the states, they're sold like Tupperware. Someone has a demo dinner in their home so prospective buyers can see how it works and taste some recipes. There is a great deal of talk about how healthy the food is and how much money you'll save by not eating out and how you only have to clean one pan, but I wonder if they're worth the money. Cherie doesn't like it when I call it the $800 blender, BTW. So when you come by, don't walk into the kitchen
and say "So, this is the $800 blender."
Oh, I won't. Our own $350 Kitchenaid was long a point of contention until I pointed out that it has a grass-mowing attachment.
Some keep their expensive motors in the garage, and some keep their expensive
motors in the kitchen.
Well, Cherie wants a Kitchenaid as well. But to have a Thermomix and a Kitchenaid will require more counter space, and that is not really a possibility until we remodel the kitchen, which would be best done when we add on. Then I'll have an $800 blender and a $50,000 mixer.
