Anyone who knows where the title of this entry came from gets a Tim Tam, because I did the Tim Tam Slam (explained in song form here, if you don't know what that is) for the first time today and it was amazing and wonderful and lovely ( Read more... )

I would, but the Tim Tams were not mine and, er, sort of don't exist now anyway except in digested form. Which might not be quite so good for Slamming with. But I can send you Penguins when I get back to Blighty! :)

You mean Brits don't drink their hot chocolate through Tim Tams? O_o

Okay, I don't do it myself, but I do dunk the Tim Tams for melty chocolatey goodness.

:-)

*hugs for you*

Nope, we don't even dunk our Penguins, at least I don't know of anyone doing so. It's crazy and wrong and I am going to do my best to educate the masses on my return to England as to the rightness of the cause.

*hugs for you, too, yo :)*

DUDE! Why have Tim Tams and not dunk them?!?!

Is the dunkage of other biscuits a common phenomenon in England, or not? 'Tis moderately common with certain sorts of biscuits here. Like Scotch Fingers. Hmm. Do those even exist overseas? They're like shortbread, but not quite, and they come in two fingers and you snap them in half, like a Kit Kat. Except a biscuit, not a chocolate bar. *is confusing even herself*

Anyway. Biscuits get dunked here. Especially in tea. Or maybe that's just me because I prefer to drink tea.

Yours,

JK

when i used to have hot chocolate at school we didn't have anything to stir the powder with so i used to use an Aero, which was nice. i have been very tempteed to try a tim tam slam ever since i saw Graham Norton do it on TV...

Lost rocks so much! i can't wait until August when it comes to Channel 4! ^_^ i'm sooooo looking forward to it!

Arsenic and Old Lace is my dad's fave film, i really must see it one day for i must watch a carey grant film to understand the full humor of the rediculous accent in Some like it Hot =^_^=

Hehehe, oh, man, the accent in Some Like It Hot really does become about a million times funnier when you've heard the real thing. ("Nobody talks like that!" bwahah.) And mmmm, Areos...

We used to do that with Kit Kats and tea... not quite as chocolatey, but they collapse in your fingers in much the same way.

Ooh, that sounds good! (Tea is inherantly awesome.) Though heh, I can totally imagine the Kit Kat would fall apart even quicker, being longer and thinner. Messy goodness. Mmm. :)
