Mandy Moore<\/a><\/strong> is, um, missing yak milk like candy.<\/p>\n

During her appearance on Tuesday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live<\/em>, the actress recalled her May hiking trip to the base camp of Mount Everest<\/a>, where she said she developed an affinity for yak milk while staying at the various tea houses along the Khumbu Valley in Nepal. Yes, you read that right: Yak milk.<\/p>\n

“They have yak milk tea, which I became obsessed with and wanted to, like, open a yak farm when I got home,” the This Is Us<\/em> star raved. “I’m like, \u2018I’m obsessed with yak milk!'”<\/p>\n

Though host Jimmy Kimmel<\/a><\/strong> assumed may have just been malnourished and delirious from the week-long trek<\/a>, she swore it was simply the best. “It’s delicious,” she continued. “Cow’s milk hurts my stomach, but yak’s milk was fine.”<\/p>\n

And now, perhaps she’ll bring that love to her California home. “Maybe I get a yak,” she joked, noting that she can find space for the Himalayan mammal. “In the yard? The dogs running around, the yak in the backyard.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Seems like she and husband Taylor Goldsmith <\/strong>are too busy working on her return to music<\/a> to tend to a Yak, though. After all, the “Candy” singer is set to release her first album in 10 years<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“We’ve written the whole record together,” she gushed. “He’s playing all on the album. We’re gonna go on tour together. It’s pretty cute!”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Back in September, the superstar dropped her first single in a decade<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I mean, there’s like a collective holding of your breath, I guess, but I feel so confident about what I’m doing and who I’m working with and what the material is,” she told E! News’ Jason Kennedy<\/a><\/strong> at the time. “I’m mostly doing it for myself. I’m just glad the response has been positive and people are digging [my] music, too.”<\/p>\n

As it turns out, people dig her vocals so much that ABC has ordered a pilot for a drama series<\/a> based on her music career.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Big news!” she shared on Instagram after the announcement. “I’m so thrilled and grateful for the chance to tell a version of my own story with an incredible team (including our TIU show runners\/writers @iaptaker and @bergernight). It’s my first project as a producer and I can not wait to watch it come to fruition.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
