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.

☕️

Very wet good morning to all.

Went to bed here on flood watch and itl be right. Minor inconvenience only and woke early to full blown flood alert and potentially crisis stay at home advice. We are safe and well above high water mark but feeling for all the directly affected people.

Yeek @Determined.

We're back to little or no rain here for the next week, but can thoroughly sympathise.

The recent alert we had, even though it ended up being below critical level, the creek came up twice as high as I expected it to, and very fast! I thought I had a pretty good handle on how the creek behaved in flood, but now I've got another level of variables to add to my risk assessment criteria.

Hi @Molly22, @Former-Member.

I'm not a tea drinker, but I am a milk Matcha fan. And I love green tea flavoured sweets, such as biscuits and icecream.

@Smc I haven't tried matcha yet but have some on order. Can't wait to try. I don't actually like hot drinks much but just doing it for health benefits really. Wasn't thrilled with the iced green tea I made. I added some lime juice and a splash of monkfruit for sweetness, but it didn't thrill me. Might have to try iced matcha.

Nyum, fruit.... 🙂

I'm enjoying some fresh from the garden fruit lately. Not huge quantities, but very nice. Jostaberries (cross between a blackcurrant and a gooseberry) have now finished, but there's still some redcurrants. Occasional strawberries, the last of the blood oranges, the apricots need to be eaten ASAP before they go squishy, and the plums are just starting. Peaches will be next after them.
