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.

Fresh out the wood fired oven would be nice @Determined, plenty to go round @Anna88.

Hoping @Smc is nice and toasty with her heater in full operation.

@Former-MemberWood stove is going, but got started too late in the day for "toasty". It's been enough to take the edge off though. I cooked silverside and vegs for dinner, got it to boiling on the electric hotplate, then kept it simmering on the wood stove. Also managed to get a bit of fruit on to stew ready for brekky tomorrow.

Sticky Date pudding, yum @Anna88 I just had some yesterday.

I hadn't had that in years (until then).

I just love Cheesecake...

Stewing fruit for brekky, & cooking dinner on the wood stove @Smc Sounds like a great idea.

Does it take lots of patience (rather than electric cooking)?

I've got gas stove & oven (& gas hot water).

There is a packet blackberry self saucing pud that I have not seen for a while that was really nice when cooked in the microwave @Anna88 I find sticky date pud a bit rich.

Hopefully the house will be warmer tomorrow @Smc.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

@Former-Member Yes I can find it a bit rich too, I like to have it with plain vanilla ice cream to tame it down a bit.
