| Hi Judy Do you think those thai chicken balls would hold their shape if steamed. They sound yummy but I don't have enough m u f fin tins and I have made the same type of thing before and steamed them. It must be the coconut milk that makes them very sloppy. I haven't seen that added before. They do sound divine. Linda |

| Thanks for that Madonna. I was going to buy my daughter one but I won't now. I have the magic bullit and it is great. Linda |

| I bought the cheap version of the "bullet" from "Home Art" (Copper Art). It broke first use. I took it back for a refund and the girl there told me they are being bought back all the time. I am sure that the genuine article is very good, mine was a $30 rip off.... it sucked. Madonna |

| I have a large blender and a stab mixer with the small food processor like attachment. I did buy one of the bullet type blenders from Big W - it lasted a few days and then broke. I never use the large blender. I use the food processor attachment to the stab mixer all the time - its brilliant.

| My latest afternoon tea. A huge huge handful of bluberries or frozen berries nuked for 2 minutes in the microwave then a dessert spoon of low fat icecream stired though the bubbling goo. It is just so yummy. Gives you heaps of fruit should be suitable for mushies, a bit of calcium and is very low in calories even with the little bit of icecream as the berries are so low in calories. It might sound like a lot of berries but they bubble down to nothing :) my favorite afternoon tea at the moment. applesauce |

| Dieting discovery for the week: Corn Thins - great for nibbling like potato chips Whipped cream in the can - very, very bad (but not as in taste) Just say no to fluffy cream. |

| Hi dear daughter Jen, just left u a message on ummm Perth GT thread I think. I have a chili plant and you are most welcome to pick some tomorrow. I also am making a cucumber dip for the morning. Have some good low calorie ideas for you tomorrow. Also I have made a tuna , egg and rice dish plus a soup. So u can either have a brunch here, early lunch or take a plate to Correina's with you. Sorry this is off topic I know. Carol | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Oh Pyretta, your a saint. Will print that one off for the folder sounds delish. I don't have any red onion or fresh chilli's for tomorrow thought...bummer, but next time will do your one. Nice to have a dip with a bit of heat in it for a change. Thanks for your input before, really appreciated it. I've been to the supportinoz site and Maree has been a fantastic help, seems there's more bypass patients over east than in perth. Hope all is well with your new port. Jen |

| I can't get off that website, now! Too many things to buy as bargain Christmas gifts. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Thanks, Fi. Magic bullet, here I come :) Expect plenty of feedback once I receive it. It shall be my Christmas pressie to myself. Cat |

| Hi Cat, I got my bullet blender from www.crazysales.com.au. I know you can also get them from Big W but I couldn't ever get them in stock locally. This was delivered for $36. HUGS, Fi |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cat, 1/2 to 1 cup is an acceptable measure, especially in the earlier months. I have never used kitchen scales, well not for weight food to eat, I only use my kitchen scales for recipes I make. Pyretta |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The bullet mixer sounds like a winner. It's tricky not to end up with splattered food all over the place when I'm using the stab mixer. I also looked at digital scales but is that really necessary? I saw on a youtube vlog that they were essential for one gastric bypasser woman. 1/2 - 2/3 cup is an acceptable measurement? Yes? Thanks for the help, Cat |

| I have a big blender and a stick blender and only ever use the stick one...its convenient, it does the same job and is much easier to clean up, plus you can pulse it in the saucepan so again less washing up. I am 'ease' driven so the less work the better which is what the stick blender is. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I have a mini food processor and a bullet blender. I tend to use the bullet a lot. Its really good for individual serves. I probably wouldn't use it if I was doing big quantities. It is also really good for grating parmesan and other cheeses. I bought one online the other day for 36.00 including delivery. If you are interested I can dig out the receipt and let you know the website. HUGS, Fi |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cat, I have only ever used my stick blender but a lot of people here recommend the bullet blenders because you can blend up such tiny amounts and drink them straight from the cup or store what you don't drink.. I have seen them for around $39 in Big W Pyretta |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Speaking of blenders... I have a question. What's the best type to buy in order to puree foods and make nice soups? I have one of those stab mixers, but wanted to buy a food processor. Only sticking point is that they cost about $100. Cat |
