Morning all, well the cafe thread is just about full so here's the new thread.

Just a reminder Florence has made pastries over night, the garden is open with the sensory garden, the cat area (with catnip bush) is available and feel free to cool your feet int the water feature.

Morning. I haven't stopped by for a couple of weeks and I've missed you all. I've never had steak and eggs for breakfast...it might cure the slight hangover that is threatening! DS submitted his final essay to university yesterday so that's him finished. We celebrated with him...but he really wanted the end of uni party he would have had pre covid. Still, it is done now.
So, steak and eggs and black coffee please.

@PinkDaydreams did you do any duck? I hope so, then we can have a "duck filled fatty puss" or two.

@sashh I am glad your cooking is better than your jokes 🤣
Oooh can I have BBQ sausage on a BBQ toast as muffin please

AlCalavicci · 22/05/2020 09:15

Umm what a chafing dish when it's at home ?

PinkDaydreams · 22/05/2020 10:16

It’s my birthday today so I’ve brought some cake for us all to celebrate! 🥳🎂

NoGravyForYou · 22/05/2020 11:06

Morning all! Look I just arrived in time for cake 🎂 Happy Birthday!

I really need to get my arse into gear today, my last three college assignments are due on Wednesday and I've only started one them 🙈
If you hear any strange noises in the cafe late at night over the weekend, don't be alarmed, it's just me getting some caffeine to keep me going!!

sashh · 22/05/2020 12:26

@NoGravyForYou I feel your pain, I'm currrently on a break from revising for an OU exam.

@AlCalavicci You will have seen chafing dishes if you have ever had a hotel breakfast, or an all you can eat buffet, they keep food warm.

lovely cake @PinkDaydreams

Morning all, I’m extremely hung over, please can I have some toast and a fruit juice?! I’ll be hiding in the shade Blush

sashh · 23/05/2020 10:53

Orange and mango juice with a pinch of fresh giner on its way, with toast and a side plate of paracetamol.

Morning!
Did you enjoy your birthday @PinkDaydreams?
I know I'm very late but is there any tea left in the pot please sassh?

NoGravyForYou · 23/05/2020 18:27

Evening all! Was up to my eyeballs with college work today but still only managed to get a few hundred words on the page. My brain is fried 😭

Just going to grab a chamomile tea and sit out in the garden and try and relax.

PinkDaydreams · 23/05/2020 19:59

@sashh thank you for looking after me! @mogloveseggs I enjoyed it as much as I could during this lockdown. I honestly didn’t think I’d had that much to drink, this morning I felt awful though so obviously I had more than I thought! Confused

sashh · 24/05/2020 04:44

mmmm I posted and it disapeared, so if this is a double post sorry.

Morninig all, Florence has spent the night baking, sweet and savory apple tart, pasties, quiches even cheese straws.

I hope nobody gets pastry headaches

Morning @sashh & Florence
Its a bit early for pastry for me but I'd love a quiche for lunch so can I have one and poached eggs on toast. Oreo is zooming around the garden , he lives the wind in his fur ( in RL he can't go out 🙁 )

sashh · 24/05/2020 05:25

No problem I'll pack up quiche to go with a bit of salad.

AlCalavicci · 24/05/2020 05:57

Thanks sashh .
It's quite here today isn't it , I wonder if the wind kept everyone up last night and now they are zonked out
