OK so the sashh cafe is open, today's breakfast is crumpets, the usual tea and coffee and I might stretch to bacon butties later.

Not going to lie, I name searched you as good breakfasts are often promised but are disappointing!! But then you read epic fiction so I’ll trust until I die, whilst happily discussing books of food poisoning 😂

HeronLanyon · 22/02/2020 02:56

Just gave up on sleep - can I wander in for a good strong coffee ? Won’t take up a big table if paying eaters come in (not a big breakfast person here). Insomnia is causing me sleepless nights ! Grin

wetinworcs · 22/02/2020 02:59

I've given up on the concept of sleep, it's too noisy and windy.
I'm hungry but can't be bothered to get up, do you deliver ?

Toomanygerbils · 22/02/2020 03:07

I would offer to serve but I can’t make coffee, never understood why anyone likes the taste...

sashh · 22/02/2020 03:29

Coffee being poured into the keyboard as I type.

Tea please.

atankofskunks · 22/02/2020 03:33

I'm up. Could I have a latte please OP?

Toomanygerbils · 22/02/2020 03:33

Do you do tea? Not pored into a keyboard 😂

HeronLanyon · 22/02/2020 03:36

I would offer to do a delivery to wetinworcs but think she may demand refund if it all arrives cold.

sashh · 22/02/2020 03:37

I have English Breakfast and Earl Grey tea, I can offer milk, lemon and cardamon.

I'm up. A combination of pregnancy insomnia and the wind outside.

I do love a crumpet!

Taddda · 22/02/2020 03:41

Coffee......double quick, double strong....too tired for niceties but I tip well!

BWcastle2000 · 22/02/2020 03:55

English breakfast without milk and since I'm up one of those lovely crumpets please.

myidentitymycrisis · 22/02/2020 03:55

I’m up and had my breakfast porridge early, I’d like a strong English breakfast no sugar please

Etinox · 22/02/2020 03:58

The wind!
Tell me about cardoman in tea?!

HeronLanyon · 22/02/2020 04:01

Cardiman is great in tea and coffee. I very slightly crush 2 or 3 green pods and let sit. I tend to fish them out if they don’t sink.
Wonder how this cafe does it. Scans shelf for chai syrup/spices.

sashh · 22/02/2020 04:02

Etinox

Green cardamon pod, split with your thumb nail and pop into the tea.

And how else can I deliver drinks other than poured in the key board, they are virtual drinks.

Check out the Punjabi tinder and kerala. I send them to my relativers to confuse them.

HeronLanyon · 22/02/2020 04:06

Do I dare type ‘Punjabi tinder’ into google on an unsecured cafe WiFi ?! What if someone can see my screen. Heck what if I can ?! Btw what’s the password here Grin

chrestomamci · 22/02/2020 04:10

DS2 woke up screaming (18 months old) DH wasn't quick enough getting to him Grin so he woke the baby. So now feeding DD and browsing MN! DH apologising that I'm losing sleep but o keep telling him I enjoy these early hours cuddles and MN time

I have a tin of it currently in the cupboard, google away, it's not dragon butter (which you should never, repeat NEVER google).

I'm up too! Long but pleasant day ahead. Need to sort out some stuff before going back to uni and work on Monday. Coffee already made (latte). Trying to convince myself not to go back to bedGrin

Taddda · 22/02/2020 04:21

@chrestomamci similar here! DD2 woke up loudly for a feed at 2.30, woke up Dd1....happens all the time atm, each take turns! There's only 15months between them, 1&2 now so hitting a difficult settling/not enough hands stage (currently going it alone....)-
Coffee helped! TY OP- started googling chai mixes, got on an interesting 'turmeric health benefits' read-

(Both Dds now settled....got about an hour and a bit before standard 6am! Night all )

Lima45 · 22/02/2020 04:22

I'm up. Got emergency call to hospital for dad who has pneumonia. Luckily they're moving him to a specialist ward as we speak so I should be able to get home and have a few hours nap in a bit.

But while I wait I'll have a coffee, strong with sweetener please

mrpoopybutthole · 22/02/2020 04:23

God I would kill for a cup of tea right now! Stuck on a labour ward, being induced, so can't sleep. Tea & hot, buttered crumpets please
