"TIM TAMS"

Hi, All-

You know, I was doing some grocery shopping for the hotel here yesterday, and I ran into into a display of Tim Tams! I seem to recall last spring a hearty discussion about those wonderful snacks. Kathy, I believe, and Lynda had experienced them first hand. Well, I bought them and we instantly fell in love with them upon trying them after dinner today. Now, if I could just locate them back home......Oh well, maybe it is better I don't as I'm sure they are chocked full of calories!

Oh yes, arent' they just yummmy? I have been told they are in the US now, but not in my area, thank goodness! But........I was at the RWA Author signing in Orlando on the 28th and I bought some raffle tickets for baskets that authors/publishers donated, and guess what? I won one of the larger ones! It was donated by the Wonmen's Fiction chapter of TWA and full of wonderful, SIGNED books and 6 (yes, 6!!) packages of TIM TAMS! There was a nice assortment of the different kinds.

I managed to come home with 5 packages and Tim has really enjoyed them. I told him they were his treat for letting me go over night! And of course I haven't touched a one (not).

Food from other countries is endlessly interesting to me. I love many different types of food. I am a big fan of Italian and Mexican, have a huge weakness for pot stickers, and love those Australian candy bars that have honey candy in the middle. And I have an assistant with a weakness for genuine Yorkshire tea.

When i was in america i really missed my tea and my milk. It tastes so much diferent over there. Even the beans tasted different and the bread. It tasted very salty to me. It strange the little things you miss. The staff were so polite. well in most places any ways and they were all great with my daughter she absolutely loved it. Getting all the attention.
