Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

☕️

Different cuisines are interesting, I think ..... but I am not game for everything .....

A family from our school moved to China for a while. They sent back a photo of fried scorpions on sticks ......

You are brave @Susana,
@Faith-and-Hope there were a heap of fried critters on Luke Nguyen's Vietnamese cooking adventure. An acquaintance of ours got served bat in SE Asia I reckon I would say I was vegetarian if I ever travelled there.

The supermarkets and “wet markets” in China were an endless supply of entertainment for me when we lived there. Lots of large, strange looking creatures in tanks, large amounts of unrecognisable animal parts hanging up and rows and rows of plant, seed and dried animal products in vaccuum sealed bags. Of course there was plenty of imported European products as well at inflated prices. My favourite aisle was the rice..... so many varieties to choose from ... in 10-20 kg bags 😊
