Take a seat @MinnieMountain I'll bring it over on a tray.

Good morning. I’ve never tried natto, I’m quite put off by its appearance but I’ll try almost anything once (except fermented shark, I don’t even want to be in the same room as that).

MinnieMountain · 31/08/2023 06:23

Thank you @sashh .

sashh · 01/09/2023 07:05

Morning.

I'm having a slow start so please just give orders to F and F or feel free to cook for yourselves.

Morning.

Well it's a bit muggy here so I'm going to make hot chocolate and Florence is making churos with cocolate sauce and Fernando is making chocolate cocktails.

ooh churos , yes please dusted with cinnamon sugar .
Its a bit early for cocktails here but a excellent chocolate cocktail is tia maria and fresh orange , it looks a bit odd , a sort of muddy orange but tastes wonderful

sashh · 03/09/2023 01:07

Morning.

Well it's been quiet here so I think I'll take a seat and cook to order. I'll get the kitten bees working on one of their dance routines.

I think I'll let Florence choose what to cook for me.

Mummaluma · 03/09/2023 04:09

Any suggestions for breakfast full of energy? DD's birthday so am using insomnia to put together her gift, and will have to deal with her party later....

sashh · 04/09/2023 04:52

Morning.

Well Florence has been busy, croisants, cakes, jams, marmalade, baguettes and lemon cakes.

I don't think we need much cooked to go with that so ham and cheese toasties / jaffles.

Fernando has a selection of gins and mixes.

Morning
A croissant and a coffee please. With apricot jam for dipping.
DS is back at school and I’m tired because dared to go out last night, so I’m going to settle down on a chair in the garden for the day.

Octavia64 · 04/09/2023 06:21

Coffee and lemon cake for me please. Up early finishing off my antibiotics for a tooth infection.

Infection gone (and tooth gone!) but still in recovery mode.

I'll put my welly shoes on, wrap myself in a blanket and have it in the garden in anticipation of the warm weather.

sashh · 04/09/2023 06:31

Its been very warm here over the weekend and today so please can we get Fernando to get the ice bar out again.

Can Florence bake some baguettes, I have more home made butter than I know what to do with.

sashh · 05/09/2023 04:11

Morning.

Fernando has indeed got the ice bar open again, and the pool is also open. The cafe has aircon and yes Florence is making baguettes, she's also using up butter from the other thread in some flaky pastry.

As it is still hot I'm doing fruit based breeakfast, yoghurt with berries, cherry tarts, apple turnovers and fruit compot.

OP posts:
Underminer · 05/09/2023 04:21

Morning! Can I join please? I’d like a yoghurt and berry breakfast, with some maple syrup and a massive coffee to get me through the day 👋

OriginalFloorboards · 05/09/2023 05:17

I’ll eat anything cooked by someone else. The novelty of being waited on sounds perfect. Can I bring my three horses? They will mooch about eating grass and love cats and dogs, although one loves to try and eat faux fur and bobble hats…

MinnieMountain · 05/09/2023 05:23

Morning
Could I have an apple turnover and I coffee please?
I'm going to float in the pool.

sashh · 05/09/2023 07:07

@Underminer of course you can, everyone is welcome.

@OriginalFloorboards horses are no problem, but keep them away from the bumblecats they have not seen a horse before. Would it be OK for me to give tham a carrot each?

@MinnieMountain on its way, are you staying in or shall I find you in the garden?

OP posts:
MinnieMountain · 05/09/2023 07:24

Thank you @sashh . I’ll be in the garden.

sashh · 06/09/2023 01:23

Morning.

Well it is another warm day here so the ice bar is staying open. Fernando is experimenting with alcoholic slushy cocktails.

I'm going to fire up the BBQ so sausages, burger, corn on the cob, chicken tikka kebabs. I know it's not typical breakfast food but what the hell.

Oh and a salad of cucmber, onion with a lemon and salt dressing - I made it yesterday IRL and it was surprising nice.

Florence is making crêpes.

OP posts:
Britintheusa · 06/09/2023 03:25

I have a screaming headache so the alcoholic slushie cocktail sounds divine. And the crepes, please.

sashh · 06/09/2023 06:11

Here you go @Britintheusa

OP posts:
ScottBakula · 06/09/2023 06:46

Please can I have some crepes too .

Bbq for breakfast? Why the heck not , burger with fried onions and mushrooms please

sashh · 06/09/2023 07:07

@ScottBakula do you want the burger first or the crepes? Or on the same plate?
