I love tart....

No, not tart(S)... though I'm sure they hold a magic all of their own.. I'm talking about my new discovery. Bulla Gourmet Yoghurt. One of the reasons I love my band is it's making me explore foods I wouldn't normally have thought of trying. Yesterday while out food shopping (oh joy! shopping for five hungry males - anyone want my food bill?) I came across this little gem. I had read on so many of your blogs about 'Greek Yoghurt' but thought the stuff was just like plain old natural yoghurt, which I really, REALLY don't like! lol. This new one though is bitey and makes your mouth water with every bite - helped along by the fact it's mixed with passionfruit which is saliva inducing at the best of times - and it's so thick and creamy. You also mix it with a little separate granola pack it comes with.  OMG..... just so yum. I managed about a half a tub before the rest went back in the fridge. And the best bit? I had some yesterday... put the lid back on and hours later it was still exactly the same as when first opened. It didn't go runny like some yogurts do. Bonus!! If you find this one, give it a try.. it's really, really delicious!

This weekend just gone we put up our Christmas tree. Quite unusual for us as we usually don't get around to it until about mid-December. But MOTH was cleaning out the workshop - again - and found the cases we store the tree in and then got a bee in his bonnet. The tree HAD to go up this very, very second, and not a minute to waste. So that's what we did. When Mitch worked at Dick Smith last year he had a real score (well, actually it was more us not him lol) There were Christmas lights going out super cheap and we nabbed a whole lot... now my tree looks like it's ready for takeoff.... guard your retinas... they are gonna burn right out of their sockets lol. Actually, it doesn't quite look as bright as the photo seems to show. It's just very pretty, very colourful and fits right in with my "I love shiny - hit me with as much as you can" magpie mentality!! 

lol I just realised something.... the big star on top of the tree is bending in the breeze - it's hitting the roof!!! hahahaha

I meant to mention on my last post that Brookster - Lap Band Labyrinth - is a very wise lady. She said to me after I had a huge sook about my lack of weight loss over the weeks - venting is good as it's usually followed by a drop on the scales. Well, who knew. It actually worked. I hopped on the very next day after my mega-rant and kerplop.. down went those scales by about a half kilo. I was gobsmacked but doing the happy jig. Slowly but surely those bastard scales are co-operating (could be I threatened its pretty little glass numbered face with a dirty great hammer too! You think!)


Gotta run,
Hope you all have a cool Wednesday,
Till next time
