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.

My ears are clear now thanks @Former-Member

I'm still not fully recovered from the virus though.

Having to have my ears syringed out is becoming too frequent for my liking. I had it done only about 8 months ago.

The nurse said "you're getting old" (great)...

Good to hear @Adge about your ears (full pun intended). Hope you continue to pick up from your virus.

I had a productive day today 🙂
Got lots of cleaning done.
I went to a macron making demonstration, it was awesome. I've always been too scared to attempt to make macrons. I can't wait to try it out

How was everyone's day today?

I'm at the train station at nearly midnight waiting for my husband to arrive *yawn*. He's been away for 4 days.

@YTT perhaps you can share the secrets to macaron making, I tried once and they were a failure.

@Former-Member there were sooooo many tips from the type of stand mixer to the type of bowls. Using pure icing sugar only and blitzing the sugar and almond mix.
He didn't give us recipes but told us quantities, I wish I wrote them down. He said there were a lot of recipes out there and was a bit of a mission to find one that works for your oven.
The demonstration cost only $30 and you get to take home 12 macrons!!!
