Nuts!!!

Living healthy over here is a lot more expensive, the brand of milk we bought in Australia (lactose free) was around $2.50 litre, and here is $4.00 / litre.

Fruit out of season is insane, the worst I saw was a rockmelon for $10.00. Yes... seriously, one, single, rockmelon.

We love Watermelon as well - coming from Queensland, and when it first came in season it was $3.50 a kilo... we still bought it as we had been missing it so much.

One day I served some up to one of the kids friends, who was born here, and they commented " wow, we hardly ever have watermelon".

One thing that has quite surprised me though, has been the price of nuts. I'm used to Almonds being moderate, Cashews more expensive and Pistachios ridiculous, and being bought only as a treat.

Over here, Almonds are the most expensive by a hair - no I don't know whose hair, and perhaps they would be cheaper if they took it out ;)
