The Shed 21

The marshmallows & cream were because I fancied something sweet after my dinner.... put them in coffee.... or hot chocolate.... or smores.... yeah!
But we have none so....
I'll just have to try and be sweet without them....

The mammograms don't sound like much fun at all.
But they are very important, so chin up and bare it! (I mean bear it!!)

uhm.... oh look! A Squirrel!

Got to be a warrior, but they won't let me wear my armor. Maybe if I bring a dragon along, they will be more gentle with me. Don't want to freak out all the other folks in the hospital though. LOL

I never thought about putting marshmallows in coffee but it could be good.

Is that even a thing or did you make it up?

a reply to: jacygirl

Me either. He's giving us ideas. Yum!

I've done it before, but I can't remember where I first saw it.... I don't think it's that common? but neither can I lay claim to making it up!
Now... is there any Irish Whiskey or Baileys??

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

Even though I rarely drink, I do like Bailey's in coffee.
Luckily that doesn't trigger a migraine. Neither does vodka and Pepsi, which might sound weird but I will have a couple if I'm going to drink. (weddings or social thing)

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

I love Baileys in coffee, though haven't had that in years.

a reply to: Night Star

Do you remember my home-made Baileys recipe?

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

No. Please post it!

Do you have MARS BARS over there?

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

We have them in Canada, so I assume they have them down south.

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

YES! Put your recipe in here. I'm going to cook and take a bath. Talk to you later Hun! Hugs!

a reply to: Autorico

OK then...

HOME-MADE BAILEYS

1/2 std bottle (35ml) Irish Whiskey (or your favourite spirit drink)
3 x MARS BARS chopped into chunks and melted (on low setting in microwave) and stirred
1 small pot (200ml) double cream.

Slowly add the cream (in small amounts) into the melted MARS BARS and stir well until all combined.
Then slowly add the Whiskey and stir until all combined together.

Let it cool.

You can make it stronger (more booze) sweeter (more MARS) Creamier..... yup.... to suit your own personal taste.

I've just never heard it. I've heard "knock on wood". I've also heard "I've got wood" but usually that's dirty.

a reply to: Gordi The Drummer

Wow that does sound fabulous!

a reply to: Skid Mark

Hi Skiddy,

I forgot to say earlier that it's quite common here (in Scotland)
It's usually used to ward off bad luck.

You'd say something like...
"I/We haven't lost a game all season - touch wood that continues!"
