    No time yet, but I'm plotting an attack strategy

    Given that I started a high protein menu this week, I want to wait until I'm carbo loading

    Sigh....

    Running son ate the last two tim tams....
    Next time I will hide them. I just HAD to tell him about the nibble off the ends and dunk in milk trick... sigh...
    I guess I didn't really need them anyway. But after getting my Western Australia travel brochure in the mail yesterday I have a hankering to find a true Aussie pub/ restaurant. So maybe I'll go on a hunt this weekend.

    Oh tim tams are my favorite cookie in the whole world. I like to nibble off the ends and do coffee or tea through them. You can now buy them at world market (cost plus).
    I know what you mean about hiding the cookies.

    The current Australian advertisment for tim tams involves a rather handsome male genie magicaly offering a woman her every desire... eg a wardrobe stocked beautiful clothing, a gourgeous bedroom but she just shakes her head saying no that's not what I want. She show's him the empty tim tam packet and looks at him wishfully and he fills it up then disappears. Previous ads have also used this genie - and the wish is always a never-ending packet of tim tams!

    Now where do I find a genie...

    Phoenix appears to be tim tam free??

    Unless of course I go up to cost plus world market.
    The only Australian food I could find in Phoenix is Bettys Burgers.. sigh..
    But I did find this...

    I can feel my heart a-fluttering from that link. Wow. I've never seen so many Tim Tams.

    apparently it's an Australian burger joint here in Phoenix. When I did a google search of aussie places out here all I got was Bettys Burgers and Outback steakhouse?? I looked at Bettys website, doesn't look like anything special to me..

    LOL I wonder what makes the burgers Australian?? Maybe you can get them with Beetroot on them (mmm I do miss Beetroot on my burgers). I think the only thing Australian about the Outback steakhouse is the silly names of the things on the menu.

    Back to Tim Tams if you live in DC I think the Australian Embassy has a shop that you can get all sorts of yummy Aussie products from including the addictive Tim Tams. My husband was in DC awhile back and came home with some and they were demolished by the family in record time.

    Bloomington Indiana is Tim Tam Free!

    However, the new IU president is from Australia, I think.

    Today, I ask one of my assistants if she knows of anyone who sells Tim Tams...she goes "Oh yeah, we had some friends bring us some from Australia!!!"

    It seems everyone has experienced these things but me!!!

    But, I lost three pounds this week!
