Hmmm... Christchurch huh? Hasn't made it to north Island that I know of. But my son and partner are entering the Nationals next year, so a family trip is being planned and Christchurch will be part of that... thanks TL...

And as for TimTams (or ChitChats) ... the only way to have them is with a glass of cold milk or hot chocolate (some people I know use a hot cup of tea or coffee)
Bite two corners off, diagonally opposite from each other, then use like a straw to suck the drink through (one bitten corner in drink, other bitten corner in your mouth)... then pop the whole biscuit/cookie in your mouth and let it melt onto your tongue... mmm, sensuously divine...
As shallow as it sounds, eating a TimTam or ChitChat like this has to be on your list of things to do before you die.

Yet another reason to travel to NZ. L.

LOL - I had a coffee night here in the states with the wives of the guys my husband works with. I ordered some TimTams from an Aussie product company here in the states as I thought it would be a nice treat for them to taste some yummies from Aust. Guess what (and I know for any TimTam addict this will be hard to believe) they were not a big hit????? I just though as Rove would say (Aussie TV host) What The???

Now I wish Id kept them all to myself.

Tim Tams not a hit...WTH>????? If we ever meet Trek & other kiwi ladies we;ll have to share a few packs of tim tams...

Also, Trek I've watched Rove a few times and still don't like him..

Ah, they don't understand a good chocky bicky in that part of the world - just check out the paltry selection at the supermarket... There is more to life than Mallowmars!

Hey I can understand that. Not a big TV fan - dont actually have one but have seen Rove from time to time when in Aust and thought the "What The" segment was pretty funny.

One day we might get all the Kiwis/Aussies together for a ride with Tim Tams provided at rest stops.

I have a friend who just got back from Aussie/NZ and has fallen in LOVE with Tim Tams! Do you have the website of that company?? I told her I'd try and get it for her? I'll also pass on the "bite the corners" thing to her.

Thanks

oh - and thanks again, I was out of chocolate fudge in the jar and was doing just fine....until now! rofl
