Jar of Vecon. So much better than rubbish vegetable stock pots or cubes.

Need to explore this 🤔

Yes cornflakes must be with ice cold milk and a sprinkling of sugar to make them even crunchier.

Techno & hard house. Reverted to my hard rock & metal roots when I met dh & pretty much stayed in that mode for nearly 20 years. Recently got back in touch with my inner raver and love it just as much now (or maybe even more!) as I did back in the 90s.

Also, the brilliant dramas on radio 4.

Going to live concerts..... forgot what a joy music is

I tried it recently with my daughter and it was horrific. Feel like they've definitely changed the recipe!

But chocolate nesquik is on my list!

Howling !!!

Not my finest hour 😂
To answer your original question, tinned fruit with evaporated milk.
I wouldn't even have considered buying tinned fruit until DD said she enjoyed it at nursery and she's a right picky bastard with fruit so, thinking even if it is soaked in syrup it's worth occasionally buying. Had a tin of evaporated milk in the cupboard which quite frankly was years old. Oh the nostalgia, it was like being 6 years old and having a sleepover at my Nana's house all over again.

Baths

Used to love them

Then found them too hot and annoying (poss because I am too fat)

Then started having them before bed 3 days ago to help with sleep - I love them again

Me too, I do like a bubbly bath once a week. Does not need to be nighttime. I feel cleaner and warmer than after a shower

i Profumi di Firenze Ambra del Nepal perfume.

I'm not a gourmand or vanilla lover, and I hate sweet perfumes. But I loved this burning-amber-tempered-with-a-load-of-fresh-coriander (cilantro). I bought and used two bottles, then looked for it again and it had crazy spiked in price. Came across 50 ml for $65 on a US site and grabbed it. It smells as amazing as I remembered - maybe a tiny bit less fresh cilantro/coriander and a tiny bit more créme brulée, but very close.

Caramac.
I'd forgotten its existence until it was on the news that they were to be discontinued.
Now they've been reprieved and you can get them in my local newsagent.

Fruit salad (as in chopped up fresh fruit in a bowl). Mum used to make it for us as a pudding. Haven’t had it in years and it’s bloody lovely! I’ve started making a large batch and stashing in fridge.

Heinz sandwich spread on white sloppy bread.

I can’t stand sandwich spread it’s like some kind of evil vinegar cum and bogey slop. I used to cry when I had it in my sandwiches especially if the bread was that one with the little seeds in ? I would vomit from the total texture overload coupled with the disgustingness of sandwich spread !
