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.

Yes I'll happily join you for some cinnamon doughnuts @Smc Or share some with you.

They're my favourite doughnuts.

I don't like the super-sweet, icing-covered ones.

Pancakes sound good @Appleblossom prefer them to doughnuts.

@Adge, one of my childhood memories is going to a department store that had installed a donut maker, and first watching the donuts cook, then enjoying a hot freshly made one. There was a sort of hopper that squirted out the ring of dough into a tub of hot oil with rollers that moved them along as they cooked, then they'd get up to a paddle that flipped them over, they'd cook on the other side, then someone would pick up several of them on a tapered metal rod that looked like a sharpening steel, roll them in the cinnamon sugar, and they were ready to go. 🙂

Ahh the memories @Smc.

I vaguely remember that I've seen Doughnut-machines in action too @Smc

More recently, I saw Fairy-Floss machines, making fairy floss (many years ago).
