Should I reopen the happy place cafe?

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?

Morning all,

I see there is still of Florence's home made jam left so I am going to have jam on toast , does anyone one want some . ?

@fivetriangulartrees I hate it when there are things prodding my brain and refusing to let it go to sleep .
Here is a bed 🛏 it's tiny but especially designed for brains , put yours in it cover with the blanky and hopefully it will go to sleep.

@ScottBakula that is kind of you to offer @fivetriangulartrees a bed and blanky for her brain.
@ScottBakula , I think you are needed over on WAGBUNNY just now so progress may be made.Grin
@sashh I hope things so well IRL today for you!

I joined this thread to see if The Happy Place Cafe was a euphemism for your bits!

fivetriangulartrees · 22/03/2023 06:25

@ScottBakula Thank you for my brain bed. I'll try that one tonight if my brain starts playing up again.

ScottBakula · 22/03/2023 06:42

@Sweetpea1532 , I will hop over there when this one is full .
@fivetriangulartrees I hope you get a night's sleep tonight.
Don't let your brain eat toast in its bed , the last thing you need is a itchy brain !

ScottBakula · 22/03/2023 07:41

I, too, have visions of warm croissants and homemade jam dancing in my head.

Early doors to the cafe tonight! It's windy (outside!!) and husband is snoring 🙄
@Sweetpea1532 a warm croissant with strawberry jam sounds delicious!
Yesssss please!

sashh · 23/03/2023 02:03

Morning.

This place seems more like a nigh club.

Well it's that time of, is it morning or night so warm milk and cookies and hot chocolate for those about to sleep and full English for those who are awake.

@Lydiahateswashing I really do not know what to say.

Morning
It’s a lovely day. I’ll have a full English with scrambled eggs please.

Sweetpea1532 · 23/03/2023 06:00

@sashh oh, that hot chocolate sounds delightful. May I please have an extra large mug?
And I'm sorry, Fernando that I called you Francisco!

sashh · 23/03/2023 06:39

One full English and one huge mug of hot chocolate on its way.

AnneKipankitoo · 23/03/2023 07:19

I’ll have hot chocolate and a croissant please. I’ll do it French style.
Sorry @ScottBakula the only cat I saw was a tabby giving the cocktail the evil eye.

ScottBakula · 23/03/2023 09:20

Oooh a full English with poached eggs and a coffee please .

@AnneKipankitoo I wonder if my mad moggy has been at the cocktails.
Hmm cat cocktail-
Martini glass , dip rim in fish oil then cat nip , shake milk & tuna water together pour into glass and garnish with dreamies

Actually my cat would turn his nose up at that as he doesn't like and of the ingredients 🙄

Sweetpea1532 · 23/03/2023 13:55

That does sound rather unappealing @ScottBakula 😂
I'm with your cat on that one!

Sweetpea1532 · 23/03/2023 14:02

@sashh , @ScottBakula 's kitty has asked me to order then two portions of poached eggs and a side of ham, please since Scott forgot to order anything for them and of course, they are STARVING! And hold the cat cocktail, bleurgh!!!😾😾😾🤢

ScottBakula · 23/03/2023 19:29

Hangs head in shame and begs over lord for forgiveness

MinnieMountain · 24/03/2023 04:29

It’s quiet here this morning. I’ll help myself to coffee and a croissant.

TokyoSushi · 24/03/2023 05:05

Morning! I went to bed super early last night so awake already, but feel refreshed and happy with the self service this morning Smile
