Morning.

Just setting this up before the old one fills up.

For anyone new, this is a cafe where you can come, eat (calorie free) drink and be merry.

There are kittenbees in the café, which are kittens the size of bees, they are friendly but do nibble the pastries.

Outside are their larger 'cousins' the Bumblecats, they are not as friendly.

Leo is a Lemur who now runs the outdoor dog wash.

Florence is a French pastry chef, Fernando is a cocktail waiter.

Outside is a water feature and a petting zoo.

>>>moves strawberries out of the way<<<

The forecast is nice for round here but a chance of showers later.
So I'm up for a bbq, a couple of snaggs and strong coffee please @sashh

sashh · 18/07/2024 10:05

Dishes up snags and coffee. Try the pool it's warm enough.

Morning.

Well the pool is open and Leo has got a small kayak from somewhere and is practicing eskimo rolls.

I'm going to make bait boxes of snacks, help yourself they contain sausage rolls, salad, cheese, ham, hard boiled eggs and chutney.

Florence is making pork pies and cheese pin wheels and Fernando is pouring out some scrumpy cider.

Morning.

It's looking like another warm day so I think I'll just get Florence making ice cream and Fernando on ice cream floats.

Leo is going to give the goats a wash. I'm letting the kittenbeees outside so please watch out.

It's to warm to sleep.
I have been stood on my doorstep with my cat in his carrier.
Some ice cream and fruit would go down well .

I have put a couple of slalom poles in the pool for Leo weave through

PoopingAllTheWay · 21/07/2024 03:13

Can not wait for the weather to cool down - Im way to hot

sashh · 21/07/2024 03:31

Morning.

Well the icecream seemed popular so let's have some more cooling foods. Fruit sorbets, yoghurt, lemon cheesecake.

Florence is making almond cakes and Fernando is making lassi.

<IRL I have portable air con units>

OP posts:
PoopingAllTheWay · 21/07/2024 03:49

Oooh, Lemon Cheesecake and a fruit sorbet please

IRL - Laying under a window and its not really helping

ScottBakula · 21/07/2024 04:21

Ooh is there lemon sorbet?

I wish I could take a dip in the pool , irl I have cooled down a bit but my hip is killing me and the best cure is heat so I have a very hot water bottle resting on it.

sashh · 21/07/2024 05:16

There is lemon sorbet, yes.

Hip pain, I know that one. I use pills, a TENS machine, heat and cold depending on the joint and whether it is inflamed.

OP posts:
ScottBakula · 21/07/2024 15:25

Thank you for the zingy sorbet.

Hip pain is horrible, sitting, standing or lying seems to aggravating it at the moment.

sashh · 22/07/2024 02:41

Morning.

It's hot again but even though there are no calories in the cafe I don't think we can have icecream again.

Only joking, we can have indian snacks and sweets so kulfi of course, gulab jamun, jellabies, samosas and paneer rolls.

Florence is making puris and Fernando has made indian tea with cardamom.

OP posts:
PoopingAllTheWay · 22/07/2024 03:46

Sounds lovely 😋🤤

ScottBakula · 22/07/2024 05:59

Can I have a Indian bait box please @sashh , I'm in for a long haul today.

sashh · 22/07/2024 06:52

@ScottBakula no problem, I'll put it in a tiffin for you.

Morning.

It feels a little cooler today but still warm. So let's head to Equatorial guinea for akwadu with bread on the side followed by yetisse.

Florence is making banana cakes and Fernando s experimenting with malamba
and cane wine.

Some of the traditional food includes rodents, snails and sea snails but think that might e too different for breakfast.

OP posts:
sashh · 24/07/2024 04:30

Morning.

Was it something I said? I'm going to take yesterday's banana cake outside to share with Leo. The kittenbees might join us.

OP posts:
PoopingAllTheWay · 24/07/2024 05:07

Banana cake sounds delightful

sashh · 24/07/2024 05:32

It is, have a slice. Coffee or tea to go with it?

OP posts:
ScottBakula · 24/07/2024 11:05

I don't think I have heard of any of that food from guinea 🤔.
But if there is any left over I'd like to try a bit.

Not the banana cake tho , I don't like bananas .

sashh · 25/07/2024 03:07

@ScottBakula yes there is plenty left.

Yetisse is a fish stew. It's been quiet so I've given F and F a day off.

OP posts:
ScottBakula · 25/07/2024 19:50

A fish stew sounds interesting, a flast of that would be very nice .

sashh · 26/07/2024 05:28

Morning.

Well I think it is a while since we have been anywhere near Japan so I think grilled fish, rice, miso soup and a bento for bait.

Florence is making cake with flavoured kit kat and fernando is mixing rice wine cocktails.
