Should I reopen the happy place cafe?

[sashh]

I'm often awake in the night, today was a lie in for me, only properly awake since 4am.

In lockdown I opened, 'the happy place café where I would make virtual breakfasts and people would come to chat.

When it was last opened my French pastry chef Florence had married Fernando the cocktail waiter.

The kitten bees are inside because it is too old but the bumble cats are in the garden as usual.

SO should I reopen or was just something for lockdown?

@ProperVexed You need hollandaise sauce to make it an eggs benedict. Florence makes an excellent one.

I suspect it was the latter @sashh .

Can I have a table for one please

I remember this thread during lockdown when I was dreaming of properly made cappuccinos

Can I have a cappuccino and an eggs Benedict please???

Cappuccino and eggs Benedict on the way.

Have a look at the garden, some spring bulbs are making an appearance.

Oh my those spring bulbs look lovely <stuffs face with Marble cake >

Thansls for the cappuccino and eggs Benedict... both are delicious

The flowers / shoots in the garden look lovely

Your eggs are delicious. Eggs Benedict Cumberbatch I hope

May I please have a packed lunch take away? I'm flying across the country and the airline is only going to throw a bitty portion of peanuts at us. Anything will be greatly appreciated although it needs to be kind of mess free as I tend to be somewhat of a slob. I like cake, any sort of cake will do!

Here you go @Sweetpea1532
One cheese and Branston sandwich .
One ham and Mustard sandwich
A Small side salad with a little pot of honey Mustard dressing
A hard build egg
A lion bar
And of course a packet of malteses!
And a pack of jaffa cakes
A small flask of coffee
( well you never said it had to be healthy! )

Wow @ScottBakula, you are certainly spoiling our lovely @Sweetpea1532. Omg those airlines do throw peanuts at their passengers, don't they?

I'm having some Passion Fruit and Mango ice-cream so I'd like to share some with you both 💫

Yes! Passionfruit ice cream!

In truth it's a combination of what I have had for my lunch this week . But who shrunk Lion bars ? ! They are more like kitten bars now 😫

Oooh I love passion fruit , please can I have a bit of ice cream too .

I know it's early for the cafe opening, but I'm sneaking in with a snoozing 2 month old to make myself a hot honey and lemon and for a sit down on the squishy armchair. Hoping I'll doze off there for a few minutes with the kitten bees.

My arms are ready to hold your 2 month old, if needed, @Igglepigglesgrubbyblanket I have plenty of experience with my own 3DCs who are all grown up.
I just have a mocha frap whilst I'm sitting here enjoying the quiet.

She's all yours @Sweetpea1532 and she loves to be cuddled while she sleeps

Good morning @Igglepigglesgrubbyblanket & @Sweetpea1532 I am a bit cool and going to get a blanket would you like one ?

There is a few packs of bacon and veggie bacon over there , I am going to make a bacon buttie would either of you like one ? .

Morning folks, does the cafe have any honey & lemon to soothe a sore throat?

Good morning @TokyoSushi, didn't expect to see new faces this early.
