Zero Degrees’s Loyalty Card

By | October 19, 2011

One thing I really enjoy and we really don’t have enough from in Kuwait is loyalty cards! I don’t know why exactly but whenever I see one it makes me happy!

Given that I am a big fan of frozen yogurt and consume it almost on daily basis, I was beyond excited when I was paying for my frozen yogurt in Zero Degrees yesterday and they took a little card and punched it in front of me 😀

6 more days and I will be getting myself a free froyo from frozen degrees! Not a bad move considering I spend a big chunk of my salary on my guiltless daily treat! Way to go Zero Degrees, you sure have caught my interest and gave me one more reason to choose you over the one million other Frozen Yogurt joints in Kuwait -aside from your good tasting yogurt that is-.

I truly wish more stores and businesses provide a similar service in Kuwait. Why not y3ni? You should see the amount of loyalty cards I’ve got in the UK! might make an entire post about them soon.

Good Saturday Morning…

By | October 8, 2011

Last day of the weekend, how fast does it come?

I guess the question for this Saturday should be “Where to have breakfast today?”. I am really in the mood for a good hearty breakfast outdoors!

What are your breakfast plans this morning?

A New Addiction: Yogen Fruz’s Coffee Fro Yo!

By | September 19, 2011

Yesterday I was craving some Frozen Yogurt badly. Butootee suggested that instead of trying my usual favorites why not try something new? Say the new place in Jabriya, Yogen Fruz?

Sulkily I agreed. De3la o I like my stable favorites. Anyways I go inside the shop and take a look at their combo’s and immediately I am at loss on what to choose!

Now can you guess which one did Danderma go for? The coffee one of course! It was AMAZING! So amazing in fact my Butootee on the way home announced that he feels like he is in a French cafe where a good coffee is being freshly brewed. That’s how strong and good it smelled -and tasted-. I would like to try the Chai Lattee too! O the mint chocolate chip insha2 Allah.

I wonder if they open for breakfast tomorrow? Butootee took this smoothie thing which he didn’t like but I tasted and it was pure pureed berries. No more, no less, and not bad at all.

The Coffee frozen yogurt is HIGHLY recommended. My current all time favorite Frozen Yogurt <3 Try it and see!

10 Guilty Comfort Food Combinations of Mine

By | September 18, 2011

1- A bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk with Walnuts and a bottle of water. I would take a mouthful of chocolate then a swig of water. Its amazing.

2- French fries, fat and homemade. Stuffed inside two pieces of toast and drenched with ketchup. Its the best sandwich ever and I only have it if I am really really sad or really down and need a pick me up cause its dangerously addictive.

3- If I want to pig out I would go and buy my self a falafel sandwich, preferably inside a round white bread, with a cocktail juice. Very 80’s meal, very nostalgic, very fattening!

4- White cheese fatayer with Orange Sunkist juice in the white plastic cup. Just the way we ate it when we were kids at school. Very hard to find good white cheese fatayer now a days though.

5- Americana chocolate Swiss rolls with KDD mango juice. Reminds me of the 80’s Fridays spent watching 7kayat 3alamiya. That was a favorite snack of mine back then .

6- If I’m happy I eat. My best celebratory meal is walking into a Godiva chocolatier and buying my self a big box of carefully selected chocolate pieces. Then I would go home, get some black coffee, wrap up on my couch and savor the box, one piece at a time. Yum!

7- Strawberries with canned whipped cream. Like the ones I have in London every other time I visit. Its just so good!

8- Every once in 3 or 4 years I get a packet of Cream Chantilly, whisk it according to directions, then empty a small can of tinned mixed fruits and eat it. Of course the Cream Chantilly will have leftovers so I would eat that with a spoon <3

9- There is this drink in Starbucks, the frappucino with chocolate chips inside. I usually order a coffee frappucino or a caramel frappucino with coffee, no whip and tall. But if I want to indulge I would order a tall Chocolate Chip frappucino with whipped cream and extra shot of coffee. Haven’t done that in a long time though.

10- Plain Spaghetti!  This is what I allow myself to eat when I am very sick with the flu. Boil PLENTY of Spaghetti, then sprinkle salt on the strands and eat them alone. Believe it or not they taste even better than Spaghetti with sauce.

What are your guilty comfort food combinations?
