JAFFA CAKES ARE GOD.

 

i looove them. they're so expensive over here, but i don't care. i got turned onto them by the travis video for "selfish jean," the show spaced, and semy :P

 

i saw a 3 foot tall tube of them in the british store around christmastime, but alas, my parents did not see the reason to buy me that many cookies/cakes for christmas, even though i asked :sad:

Ok, I've wandered in to more madness than usual...

 

What's the sudden obsession with jaffa cakes?

I'm not sure. Min started it :rolleyes:

 

:P

Parents can be evil sometimes...... :dozey:

 

I couldn't get jaffa cakes to save my life...... there's not a single place in this stupid town that sells them..... :inquisitive:

 

***kicks the floor***

its troubling what you can end up getting hooked on.

 

I was given a little box of cranberry marzipan over christmas, and now I'm done for :blank:

 

also, I just found out about raspberry filled jaffa cakes. its probably best I never had the chance to try those.

 

now, back to postcards. focus. :P

Cranberry marzapan?? That sounds interesting..... :P

RASPBERRY JAFFA CAKES?! i'm SO buying those next year! i like raspberry flavor much better than orange in general.

 

i was also laughed at for pronouncing "jaffa cakes" the wrong way :dozey:. in my american accent, i would pronounce it "jaahhhfahhh," but the brits actually pronounce it like "jeaaafaaa," which makes me laugh because it sounds like a thick NYC accent to me :P.

Beautiful use of the word "alas", Chelsea... that's why I always love reading your posts!

 

Back on topic... I've always thought jaffa cakes were a bit "meh" - sorry!

:lol:!

 

i actually say "alas" a lot, even in real life. no wonder people think i'm a wacko :wacko:.

 

and you obviously don't appreciate jaffa cakes because your country is spoiled with them. try living in a jaffa-deprived culture like america and they'd be all you want :bigcry:.

 

i should start a charity for jaffa-deprived nations.

 

 

ohhh, i'm in a random mood.

"Oh my god!"

 

"What?"

 

"....I've got some jaffa cakes in my pocket"

 

:D

^exactly! that was the scene that made me want some. and the inside of the british DVD box set, where it says something like "open up a pack of jaffa cakes and pop in the first DVD, this night is about to go off" (i'm to lazy to go get the DVDs to check the exact wording :P)

I'm not sure. Min started it :rolleyes:

 

:P

What Maya said :P

What did I do? :uhoh:

I have the 'ahhhhhhhh... selfish jean' shirt :P

I saw that there was a lot of activity in this thread, so I thought "AHH DEBS UPDATE!" But when I come here to check, what do I find? The Jaffa Cake fan club! :rolleyes: :heart:

 

:lol:!

Hey, using the word "alas" (and "hence" as well) is one of my favorite pastimes, and no one thinks that I'm a wacko!

 

 

But sometimes, deep down in my soul, I wonder if they really do think I'm a wacko... :P :lol:

just leaving a little gift I made from all the jaffa lovers. I have never tasted that myself but I will, hopefully,If I eve go to ENgland or Scotland...

Now i'm not a fan of jaffa cake. I don't like orange jelly :\

 

UGH ANXIOUSLY WAITING!!!!! :bomb::bomb::bomb:

 

DEEEEBSSSS!!!!! :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

also, I just found out about raspberry filled jaffa cakes.

 

they're very wrong, as are the lime flavoured ones

how can anyone not appreciate a jaffa cake, whether they have stacks of them or not? they are the king of biscuits.

 

and as you're deprived of them, now is probably not the time to mention jaffa cake muffins.

Jaffa cake mufins??? :wideeyed:

 

 

 

 

You think Debs likes jaffa cakes??? :thinking:

Maybe we could exchange some of those jaffa cake muffins for a report..... :D

who wants a muffin of me? :uhoh:

 

:P

 

*waiting for Debs* :bomb:

there are lime ones too? :blank: how could I have missed all this.

 

I still maintain that the raspberry ones sound amazing, simply because they're raspberry, but I could go without lime. Lime jelly and biscuits just doesn't sound right to me for some reason.

 

But mostly I wanted to say how much this all made me laugh :nice: I woke up this morning, and decided to see if there was any news by any chance, and instead... found the Jaffa Cake convention still taking place.

 

Clearly we were in need of a distraction :P

Aparently you can become one of these...... :uhoh:
