    wow, I’ve been down a real rabbit hole. What I enjoyed so much appears to be sahnequark, which is quark with cream mixed in. Regular quark is a spreadable cheese.

    Fascinating stuff. I’m going to try making it first opportunity I get. 👍🏻

    My breakfast every day for three weeks now. I think it qualifies as an obsession.

    Quarkini and milch kaffe. I walk the two miles round trip to the bakery to help offset some of the calories.

    I’m going to miss this so much. 😫

    I have always eaten kiwi with the skins on, but the thin skinned kind. Last fall I found out a variety grows here when I was given some (Vancouver area of BC), but it had a very thick furry skin - almost prickly - so if you rubbed most of the excess off, might be edible - but I used a grapefruit spoon to scoop it out 😉

    🤦🏻‍♀️ I never thought of scooping one out, and hate peeling stuff, so have always avoided them.

    New use for the grapefruit spoons I just got.

    Thanks!

    Always happy to find new uses for grapefruit spoons 🙂

    Back in my yogurt for dessert phase.

    I love the flavored Chobani yogurts right now. Yes, they have added sugar, but they are better then scarfing down a package of cookies or pint of ice cream. I just can't stand the taste of plain yogurt, especially Greek yogurt. Even doctored up I can't do it.

    Grapefruits! So sour, juicy and yummy!

    I've been on a grapefruit kick lately too - red or pink, and I do doctor them up with a packet of Stevia…pricey though, at least around here…now if I lived in Florida, you probably get them by the bag lol 😅

    Ooooh! Being in a non-citrus fruit country they aren't really cheap here. But I do love them so much. I usually cut them in half through the stem point, then cut them into 8 slices total and just lick, and bite, and suck, and… 🤐 anyway, I just eat them as is.

    Lately, I’ve been obsessed with Greek yogurt with honey and almonds! It’s the perfect mix of creamy, sweet, and crunchy, plus it keeps me full for hours. I love that it’s high in protein and super easy to customize menu with different toppings. What’s your current go-to snack? 😊

    I spent the night at the airport. Airports and airplanes (mentally) make me wildly snackish, so I wandered into the airport grocery store and bought a chocolate caramel Cornetto to eat on top of the pizza I’d just devoured a few minutes earlier.

    Cornetto’s are similar to American Drumstick ice cream cones, a pre-made cone with a scoop of icecream, some syrup, and the cone interior chocolate covered.

    When I logged it, I was shocked it was only 232 calories. It was delicious! Gourmet compared to sad, dry ol’ Drumsticks, in fact.

    I would consider adding one to my diary nightly if they were available in the USA.

    Fixing to head to the terminal to see what additional damage I can do today. I’ve already got a Jethro sack full of snacks. 🫤
