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.

Fine choc on offer here

Only the best will do - none of the cheap and nasty confectionery that appears on the shelves at this time of the year.

@Janiee@Former-Member@Determined... Sausage Sizzle chips may be a bit of wishful thinking, but these are real. I've tried them- surprisingly nice. A delicate touch of cucumber flavour.

And these are just plain confusing... Chicken flavoured chips, Bluebird brand, and a penguin as their "mascot"...?? To make matters worse, when you look at their online advertising, they are proud of being a Kiwi/New Zealander brand.... That's an aviary, all in one packet!

@Former-Member, those chocs look yuuummmm.

There's one form of cheap chocolate that does make it into our place at Christmas, and that's chocolate coins. They're a bit of a Christmas morning tradition here. 🙂

@Shaz51 I'm 47, definitely time to stop adulting 😉 lol

Lol welcome @TAB, no need to apologise to me 😊

@Smc

Chocolate coins = 😀 = yes please

@Janiee

Haggis chips = yikes = perhaps not for me. @Shaz51 and @Smc have Scottish roots too - they might be tempted😀. Don't know how adventurous @Determined is when it comes to foreign foods.
