    idea

    AHEM *rant coming*

    Ok, some people are exempt from this messarge..

    Instead of venturing to your local costco or whatever..why not seek out the Aussie or Kiwi pubs in your city/county?

    I'm sure if you look hard enough you might even find an Aussie rules/rugby team to cheer on. I know there's one in Chicago.

    You'd *gasp * meet new people! Aussies & Kiwis are your friends..We may make fun of you but we're just takin the mickey ok..

    Oh yer-Arnotts is the company that makes tim tams & other goodies.

    Well, where I live, that would be the Outback Steakhouse

    Since I have today off and I need something to do I think I'll go in search of Tim Tams. There is a World Market in Louisville so that is my first stop. We have a Costco as well but sadly I do not have a membership Gosh I hope I find some for I love sweets and they sound SOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOD!

    Well, I'm sure I'll find them in Bloomington...it may be Mellencamp's "small town", but it counts itself as worldly.

    Heck, the local health food coop carries Pepperidge Farm Milano Cookies ( I've not figured that one out yet)...so Tim Tams should be par for the course...

    Sorry Mak, TimTams (with milk/a cuppa) and will power do not go in the same sentence, or even in adjoining sentences...

    So I'm afraid your post will not be understood by many

    oooohhhhhh......

    I also wouldn't mind a few Aussies or Kiwis here to make friends with. I know they are good people. (Those Canadians are good people too)

    pub

    I am led to believe that if you visit your local pub, i'm sure you'll find an Austrailan or Kiwi behind the bar. Aussies are everywhere and in places you won't expect them.

    Hey, what about the YHA in Anchorage?

    Seek and ye shall find!

    Tim Tams are the best chocolate biscuit in the world! Tim Tam slams are a great, if sometimes messy, way to devour a whole pack! My favourites are the double coat (extra thick layer of chocolate on the outside) and the caramel (the have caramel in the middle as well as the chocolate cream). Has anyone tried them frozen??? Yum.... the freezer also makes a great hiding spot!
