For our author Andrea Tomicek the favorite place to be is the kitchen. That was particularly true for her grandmother's kitchen which had an old wood stove that was used for heating and cooking as well. There she learned all about foods from an early childhood on. And it was her grandmother as well who taught her important tips and tricks for making all kinds of products.It was the calm atmosphere and the coziness of that room, not to mention the old sofa in the corner that made her spent a lot of time with her grandmother.Today, in her modern kitchen - without sofa, but with a Thermomix - she is now able to live out her creativity. She just loves to use her Thermomix to come up with new ideas or to produce well-tried products in this modern way.Homemade gifts with the recipes of Andrea Tomicek will be a highlight not just for Christmas, but all year round and for every occasion, promise!
