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.

Oooh, bacon sandwich with ketchup and a coffee please

sashh · 04/07/2024 05:50

One bacon butty (bread of bap?) on its way with a coffee.

Bacon butty with ketchup would be lovely! And a gallon of coffee. I'm up early to vote - our polling station opens in 10 mins. I've got two slightly grubby children Leo can wash if he wants?

sashh · 05/07/2024 01:06

@Igglepigglesgrubbyblanket how do you like your shiney clean children?

Well I'm watching election results so I think a range of coffees is in order.

I'm just going to put out a buffet for people to graze a breakfast and pick up some bait.

Eggs, hard boiled, scrambled, fried and coddled. Bacon of course. Sausages, Lincolnshire and cumberland. Beans and tomatoes.. A plate of different cheeses and a selection of ham. Fresh fruit and yoghurt.

Florence is making soda bread and Fernando is making coffee with a wee dram to keep out the chill.

Watched the Election till 5am
Then just been scrolling on here

sashh · 05/07/2024 07:51

Did you admire the returning officers hats? There were some corkers.

Morning.

Well I made a mistake, I allowed Leo to watch the election results and he is now strutting about in a mighty fine lord mayor outfit.

For a change I'm heading to Costa Rica for Gallo Pinto with fried eggs and plantain.

Obviously coffee but Fernand is making cocktails with Guaro and a choice of tamarindo, pineapple, strawberry, watermelon, banana, papaya, lime, guanabana, guayaba juices.

Florence is making tres leches cake.

Yuk to Cauliflower :)

sashh · 07/07/2024 06:52

Morning.

@PoopingAllTheWay You have never tasted my cauliflower soup, it is delicious.

OK I think I am coming down with a cold so I'm keeping things simple today.

Things on toast, beans, cheese, bacon and cheese, milky cheese on toast.

Florence is making madeleines if you want something sweet. Fernando is making white sine spritzer.

Morning.

Well toast wasn't a hit was it?

I'll put the coffee on and have a snooze in the corner.

OP posts:
ScottBakula · 08/07/2024 06:24

Good morning all,
I am back on earlys this week.
I hope you are feeling better @sashh .
I see there are some beans left so I will make some fresh toast .

sashh · 09/07/2024 03:57

Morning.

Well it is cool and wet so I'm going to make samosa chat to keep us warm. Florence is making gulab jamun and Fernando is making chai with cardamom pods.

OP posts:
PoopingAllTheWay · 09/07/2024 06:27

Hay

Hope everyone has a good day

Im trying to sleep but the tinnitus is terrible

ScottBakula · 09/07/2024 09:39

I think that was summer yesterday, I hope you all enjoyed it.
I'd like a couple of samosa please @sashh .

@Igglepigglesgrubbyblanket I know someone that suffers from that and has a wearable device that goes on your coller / lapel / breast pocket, so it may work under / on your pillow. I will see if I can find out what it's called.

sashh · 10/07/2024 05:53

Morning.

I'm sticking with the indian / Bengali / Pakistan breakfast today.

So spicy scrambled egg, chat on the side, gobi paratha, plain yoghurt and halwa to follow.

Florence is making rasmalai and Fernando has some flavoured chais to try.

OP posts:
ScottBakula · 10/07/2024 05:59

Morning @sashh ,
Just some scrambled eggs for me this morning please . I've got a lot on this morning and I will fall asleep if I eat all you are offering

sashh · 10/07/2024 06:27

@ScottBakula no chilli? Just a couple of slices? OK.

OP posts:
PoopingAllTheWay · 10/07/2024 06:50

Scrambled eggs sound good! :)

sashh · 10/07/2024 09:36
