DuNkArOo

Dunking with Duncan, i.e. our very own Duncaroo. The BF of one of my BFFs was in town from BrisVegas (what Brisbane, Australia locals affectionately call their home) for a wedding last week and stayed at my house. As part of Duncan's B&B payment plan, he brought us a bar of chocolate, a package of gummy pythons and (my favorites) a tin of milo and tim tams.

Hanging out with loads of Aussie and Kiwi sisters on my mission, I became very well acquainted with a little game they like to play with tim tams and milo. And since we had both of these objects, I felt it was obligatory for my roommates to participate in what Aussies' have dubbed "tim tam slams", which is where you:

1) get a hot cup of Milo (their hot chocolate)


2) bite off opposing corners of a tim tam


3) dip it in the milo and begin--without hands!--to suck the hot chocolate through the tim tam

(look at these attentive pupils)


Goal: drink the hot chocolate and melted tim tam fudge in your mouth and grab the biscuit in your mouth before it plops in the milo.

Since practice makes perfect, we all finished the session a bit messy, a few hundred calories over our daily required intake and really, really hyped up on sugar. But it was worth it, try it some time.
