All righty then .... going back a few months to Jim's posting of the true awesomeness of Tim Tam Biscuits (cookies?) and the vaunted "Tim Tam Slam" as presented in a video by a couple of very good looking and way too young Aussie Chicks (Sheila's?)

Yesterday, ended up having to go to town and decided to make the trip more all-inclusive by doing our bi-weekly foraging tour of our local grocery store. Found that they had Tim Tam's on sale for about half price, so bought another package just to do the "Slam" experiment and see what-all our boy Jim was on about?

Bit the opposite corners off and not having any "Nestle's Milo" (we don't call it that here), or other hot chocolate drink mix around, chose coffee as the test solution to be sucked up by the Tim Tam "straw", as I find coffee and chocolate to be a heavenly combination in any case. Did the deed and it wasn't any too bad, but I only had a couple of seconds to enjoy it as the Tim Tam bar (biscuit) immediately started to collapse from the inside out, as it also was melting in my grasp with my fingers sinking into the goo! My only real alternative at that point was to pop the whole mess into my mouth in one piece, which, while seemingly wasteful of something that should be savored, was still rather delightful, if just a bit too quick and definitely messy!!!

So, there you have it .... a somewhat less than scientific analysis of an off-hand experiment trying to replicate results from a different down under hemisphere.

Good though .... may just need to try that again!?!?    ;c)
