Don't know if you're anywhere in or near London but if you are, you can find the Japan Centre just off Piccadilly circus. The green tea ones are totally delicious but teeny tiny little things (and I'm greedy)
Well done on your ys bargains, I haven't had much luck recently but keep on looking.0 -
Your cat is on the bench. :eek:0

^ It's impossible to keep cats off anything!
LOVE the cat, Older, and even as a veggie that TITH looks lovely!
I didn't know those kit kats existed either!
I've just had a Vivani org choc, lovely, need to find a local stockist though..
Busy few days so not much cooking, ate with family.
Did cook pasta tonight with the last of the stilton from the freezer, some cherry toms, HG rocket, onion and garlic.
Had my lowest monthly shop spend this year.0 -
^ ^ ^
Just googled that chocolate Kirri and it looks delicious, especially the chilli one, although the one filled with Kirsh looks lush too. I'll add that to the list of chocolate to be tasted before I shuffle off this mortal coil!
Good stuff on the low grocery spend, it doesn't seem to have stopped you from having some lovely meals, they always look so tempting.0 -
Lady c, just be grateful her cat is not on your bench!
Older what are those little round things in the tube? I didn't see the pictures at first. I do live in London, funny enough china town is only a few minutes from the japan centre, so I will go there soon, it's also right near whole foods as well, I will make a trip and be sure to visit jl for my cake and coffee at the same time, that only down the road too! lol
My green beans were mouldy! I was looking forward to them! but did get cheesey coleslaw ys, off to have dinner!
Just bought some ys "lighter" doughnuts and some choc the dairy milk with popping candy and jelly beans yum!Lose 28lb 3/28lb

^ MNR- they look like Bueno?
I'd end up eating more than 1 if I got those mini kit kats..
Older - I tried the Almond Orange yesterday - didn't realise it was vegan when I ate it - and today I had the creamy caramel, that was dairy - both gorgeous and wish I'd got more now! I got them in Planet Organic. Got a Ombar coco mylk too which is also worth a try - it's vegan but it's raw choc so quite intense. I was curtailed by money yesterday or I'd have bought a bigger selection, there were so many new ones to try!
no willpower with choc0 -

They are called Meiji Gummi choco, apple flavour, and whilst they were OK, they weren't particularly interesting so I probably should have picked one of the other flavours instead, but I'd never had apple flavoured chocolate before. They had all sorts of interesting chocolate so I'll be going back (plus their sushi looked really good and if it had been close to lunchtime I'd have tried that)
I'm liking the sound of the chocolate Kirri has recommended and I've got a Planet Organic and a nice deli in walking distance from me that might sell them, so I'll be searching for them this week (soon as I've finished the KitKats) In my own defence though, whilst I have been stuffing myself with them I've also been handing them out to friends and, well, just anyone really. I went to see Twelve Angry Men at the theatre and handed them round to the people sitting near me, including a lovely couple who'd travelled down from Bognor Regis for a birthday treat, and we all agreed that Green Tea was the best flavour!
Macsoupdragon you are leading me into dangerous territory with the cybercandy shop, it looks amazing!0 -
In to freezer - nothing.
Out of freezer - prawns x 2 + HM Apple Pudding.
Dinner yesterday -
Today we had another stir fry to use up veggies.Decluttering Achieved - 2023 - 10,364 Decluttering - 2024 - 8,365 August - 0/45
