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.

Belated good evening @Adge @Smc @Faith-and-Hope @Determined @outlander

Did not have frogs in jelly when we were kids, but I suspect some of you may or indeed have made it for your offspring, instead we suffered with sago pudding that we called 'frogs eggs'.

not tonight @Former-Member but have done in the past. i wasnt a fan of it. it was sweet which was ok but it was more the texture of it. do you like it?

Hi @Former-Member Yes we often had Sago pudding, when I was young (if anything).

It was rather bland & tasteless, except for a tiny bit of vanilla flavouring.

I guess it was filling, but had virtually no nutritional value, & didn't taste very nice...

How about Bubble tea with black tapioca pearls instead... they really do look like frog's eggs.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I wanna try this version.... "Irish" bubble tea. Wow.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I did not like sago @outlander @Adge, not sure I'd fancy bubble Tez either @Smc

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Former-Member they taste fine, but the chewy "pearls" in a drink take a bit of getting used to.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?
