Last week I posted this photo:

along with a short little missive about how I fell madly in love with these biscuits about nine years ago while living for a summer in Ireland. You guys responded with a flood of kindness, including offers to send me what would amount to about 70,000 calories’ worth of cookies. Which you are free to do. But it should be noted that my buddy Jaye beat you all to the punch by going into the British imports store AROUND THE CORNER FROM MY HOUSE and buying me some. So it turns out I could’ve been eating them this whole time, because the cookies were within freaking walking distance of me. Needless to say, I’ll be glad to have Jaye around when I’m traipsing around Ireland once more this summer, as without his keen eye it’s entirely possible I’d walk right over the edge of the Cliffs of Moher. Thanks, Jaye. And thanks, all of you. I really, really like all the people who read this website.

I’m glad you’ve found a source for your hobnobs fix! I must say, they are DAMN good… I’m pretty sure I’d eat the whole package in one sitting if someone didn’t take them away from me.

I love hobnobs too. My English fiance has turned me on to them. You can get them at the Buy For Less on NW Exp. But I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind sending me the name/address of the British imports place in okc? I would love to take my fiance into it when he’s here again this month. great blog, btw. cheers! deanna
