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.

☕️

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

lol @Former-Member male escort from Turkey.. now that is so apt.... have you been there? It's really like that in that all the men think they are that! It's kind of "be careful who you talk to"... but I love Turkey. The real turkish delight is not like our western version.. they like super super super sweet desserts, bit too sweet for me.. but I love their savoury things... also their bread in the mornings you buy it from the local women who walk the streets selling it.. ok I've rambled but.. I really love Turkey soooo many good memories.. and some "interesting" ones too.

Now back to fabio and the recipe 😛

@Smcooo slow cooked duck with veges sounds incredible. Tiny bit of duck fat on my veges makes them roast sooo well so can only imagine how yum that was! Sounds like a lovely day.

I have not been to Turkey @Spookytookims don't even have a passport. My world adventures are in the culinary field.

My mission tonight @Shaz51 is to eliminate the rodent that has avoided capture. Must be wearing the crash helmet you kindly provided. Two traps set where it appears to be lurking.

@Smc all those home made goodies, I dream of when I can have the time...

Hi @Former-Member and @Smc et al

We are just doing simple but special food. I get to eat all the artichokes and baby beets .. as no-one else wanted them ... their loss my gain.

The dark choc seemed to dissappear tho .. lol

Have a great trip @Faith-and-Hope

Hope everyone's easter been good. Can't say mine has been. Struggling still, prob more, and I know it won't stop til a discussion is held on where I stand and if I do matter well he needs change his communication. When will that happen...well it's unknown. He is still camping, whether it's true or not now I don't know as lately feels more like he is avoiding me. The paranoia that he is seeing someone else is coming out. Wake up every morning anxious and down, then day generally becomes ok, then as I lay in bed I am not ok. I haven't been able sleep well 😔
