Goldfish & Peanut Butter Cups

My four year old and I went to Norton St. Grocer in Bondi Junction mall today. Now if you are an American in Australia, you will probably be happy for me. And if you are an American in America, you will probably be thinking this is pretty pitiful. Hellman's Mayonaise, Goldfish Crackers, and K.C. Masterpiece BBQ Sauce... kind of sad that this would cause such excitement.


My purchases at Norton St. Grocer today-- big score.

Other fun at our house today:


Birthday cake made with homemade cinnamon scented play dough

Hey, that's a pretty good haul there! :-)

I know, and I'm glad I got this stuff-- we went to Myers today and they literally had like 3 cans of black beans, blue cheese dressing, and diet cherry coke. They said everything flew out of there, nothing was left, and more stuff was coming Monday.

I hate to think what you paid for that haul! Have you checked out the Essential Ingredient in Crows Nest or the grocer at the bottom of DJs in the city? Both have some of our favorite American foods (at terribly inflated prices) You can also find some of the ethnic things you are looking for at Harris Farms? They can surprise you!
Where in Sydney are you? We are in Northbridge...
