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.

Good morning @Former-Member

Good morning everyone.

The home visit nurse is coming for the last time today - to check on my surgery wound (scar).

Then I'm footloose & fancy-free (well not fully).

I won't have to wait around, for hours, wondering when they will arrive.

Hello @Shaz51 @Former-Member

It's raining although gently, so I was still able to clean & re-stock my aviaries.

What's for dinner?

I haven't figured that out yet...

Hi @Former-Member, @Adge.

We're going with tuna mornay and rice here. An easy dinner that still gets a "tick" for being healthy, because I load it up with veggies. So much so that one tin of tuna makes up enough for two meals.
I'd actually started the process of making mornay a couple of weeks ago when I found out that there wasn't a tin of tuna in the pantry. Added some torn up bread (for bulk) and chicken stock instead. 😄 Worked nicely.

@Smc I have spotted a tuna bake recipe that I am thinking I might be able to eke out a tin of tuna over a couple of meals, the key as you have alluded to being the addition of plenty of veg.
