Back in February of 2014, when this blog was mainly about life and little about cooking, I wrote about my lifetime acquisition. Some of you might remember it, for those who don\u2019t, here\u2019s a bit of my love story with my dear cooking robot. Now, as I see the dates, I realize that it took me quite some time to write about her, since my Rosie TM 31 model had already been at home for at least 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unfortunately, when we moved back to Mexico, we had to make some tough decisions at home, and we thought it would be better to sell it and buy another one whenever we would be established in the country we would settle in time. The voltage change for this kind of machine\u2026 well, we thought it wouldn\u2019t be convenient, even when you can read in that old text that some of the people I know still use it with a voltage converter, and yes, both ladies in the story are still enjoying their Thermomix and they might be already considered of a certain age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2018, already in the U.S., I came across two consultants of the brand at an event the three of us were there to get new clientele, though none had such luck. One of them stayed in touch for a few months, but stopped contacting me when I suggested I would not get the robot for the time-being. And even though I really wanted it, I knew it would be better to wait for the new model. The model marketed in that moment here was already a newer one than the one I had had in France, but it wasn\u2019t the one I was expecting, at least not for now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And it was not for nothing, for my consultant in France, with whom I have stayed in touch, had already revealed to me that the new model would be here soon in my new country of residence, and even when it would be a bit pricier, it would be top-notch, I mean it would become techie and all. So, since I love gadgets, and it\u2019s no secret, I knew I had to wait. Let us now fast forward to the Spring of 2020, when we were all cooking 24\/7. I was having quite some fun preparing new stuff and testing new recipes. I didn\u2019t even remember the appliance I had fallen for in Paris. But my friend Cynthia, a very close friend with whom I talk all the time brought it to the table. She acquired it because she wanted , like everyone, to put food on the table more easily, and faster for her and her husband, since like many of us, she was juggling between breakfast, lunch, and dinner while working from home to run her business. And after a long conversation about it on what became our weekly Zoom call, it was at that moment when I began looking for the best option. Should I buy it here or in Mexico? I decided it would be better to get locally with one of the 2 consultants I had already met. It was only afterwards that I learned that warranties are local. So, point for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The toy arrived and OHHH MY GOOOOD! It was even better than what I remembered. And let me tell you why, the thingie is now connected to the Internet, it has a bluetooth, a portal on my computer to plan menus, an app I can manage on my phone, as well as a recipe database that allows me to experiment with cuisines I was only able to try by going to a restaurant. I need to be honest saying I already knew this was the only home appliance vouched by accoladed chefs everywhere in both their home kitchens and in their restaurants, plus it came with a number of settings that allowed the machine to do so much more than what my beloved Rosie T31 had been able to in my small Parisian kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, in this first \u201cpost\u201d for the \u201ctool of the month\u201d I have to say that the Thermomix TM6 rules big time. Call it what you want, but, my message today is that if you want as least appliances as possible in your kitchen, this is the one that will help you achieve more with less. And yes, I know it\u2019s pricey, but, if you use it, let\u2019s say 3 times a week, it\u2019s well worth it. And this is without it\u2019s newest pal, the Thermomix Friend. I can\u2019t wait for it to get to the U.S. market and be able to try it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
