...because I didn't close it over the weekend.

Today's special is eggs.

Boiled, fried, poached, coddled, convent, I might even do scotch eggs.

Tea and coffee as always and toast of course.

Morning, may I just have tea and toast please?
Was looking forward to my only day with a lie in. Ex BF has drifted back into my life and he's woken me with his snoring!! Think I'll sit in this winged back chair

Bluewater1 · 19/03/2020 06:44

Yikes @Frownette shut the cupboard door quick!

sashh · 19/03/2020 06:45

OK I'm going to leave the doors open and the hot drinks are now in insulated jugs. I'm probably not going to be back until the morning, enjoy the cafe.

Anybody for a fresh brownie and freshly brewed coffee? Today trying to work from home is sucking the life out of it me.

AlCalavicci · 19/03/2020 17:08

Ooh I will have a brownie and coffee please.
I will be working playing with cat part of the time next week I am not looking forward to it

HeronLanyon · 19/03/2020 17:33

Oh yes. Fresh brownie would be lovely. Great thing about this cafe is things which were fresh out of the oven 3 hours ago still are ! Oh lovely and warm still. Thank you.

sashh · 20/03/2020 02:36

Morning all, thanks for sweeping up and washing up.

Hot drinks are brewing, as there is still a brownie or two I think today's breakfast will be cakes, buns and muffins.

I feel we are all ready for a sugar rush.

A nice sugary breakfast with a mug of tea would really hit the spot right now - ill baby up since midnight. You're open early today.

sashh · 20/03/2020 02:58

@Queenofpi this is how the cafe started, I made drinks on a 'why are you awake' thread.

One big mug of tea and an even bigger slice of fruitcake with Wensleydale, shall I take the baby for 5 mins?

Queenofpi · 20/03/2020 03:10

That would be amazing, have this muslin though as she's a bit sicky.
Ooooh, gotta love a nice cuppa.

AlCalavicci · 20/03/2020 03:31

Ummmm I have changed my mind, can I have some strong coffee instead of string coffee Confused

sashh · 20/03/2020 03:34

LOL strong coffee on its way.

Tonight is bad- baby won't be put down and won't stop comforting. I thought the four month sleep regression was over 😢

I need sleep.... maybe a coffee?

Sorry to hear the baby is poorly. Hope you get some rest soon.

Queenofpi · 20/03/2020 03:39

I didn't even notice the string coffee! But then I couldn't find my glasses so am squinting at my phone in a very mole-like fashion.
I remember the 4 month sleep regression, although I thought I'd dodged it. It arrived for us at 5 1/2 months.

AlCalavicci · 20/03/2020 03:44

String coffee = either fancy pants artisan £100 a cup kind of thing, or when there is no coffee in the shops ( the cafe will always have coffee of course) and I have boiled a bit of old twine to try and make a brew.
