Have you got any coffee? I despise tea. Water'll be fine if you haven't got any.

Ok, and I've got some Green and Black Mayan hot chocolate too if you fancy some after your cuppa char (thanks for the tip Soupdragon!)

I've got some Green and Black normal hot chocolate. What's the difference between that and the Mayan?

I got Tescoman to battle through the snow drifts to bring me a tub of it tonight

Nelson, try a wee bar of Mayan Gold choc first (on sale in Julia's papershop/Kitchiners/Traidcraft shop) to see if you like it.

Hmmm. Sounds good. Have you tried making hot chocolate with chilli? I've got a recipe.

Thanks for the tip Popster - can you nip out and get me some? Do your usual thing with the buzzer so I know it's you.

Poor Ali's tea thread has been hijacked by hot chocolate addicts.

What's on offer this morning ? Any nice latte going ?

Dadaist · Post by **Dadaist** » 08 Feb 2007, 08:58

Cease this tomfoolery and frivolity at once, all of you.

Ali, you are making a mockery of internetworking with your ridiculous thread, and encouraging our youth to dilly dally when they should be attending to their studies.

The rest of you should know better. Please resume discussion of serious topics, or spend your time in a more productive manner.

Got myself a large bar this morning and am scoffing a bit with my coffee as I type.

Am considering giving Ali a bit to give to you, Nel Boy, as it's him what knows the 'doorbell code' and NOT me.

Do not consider. Do.* Or do not. There is no 'consider'.

*I think you should go for this option.

Must ask about the hot chocolate with chilli. It might just work.
So whats the recipie, Nelson?
I've tried chocolate pudding with chilli ( was ok but....) and I've seen recipies for making chilli with chocolate in it, the dark choc not milk mind.

The Maya gold drinking choc is now my fave nightime drink ( half milk half water) even if the last mouthful has a few "gritty" bits in it. I got it from Tesco. As it's the only supermarket I've been in for a couple of weeks I don't know if anyone alse stocks it

I got some from Hotel Chocolat and I didn't like it much.

The regular variety is very good though.

I see they have a new variety with rum

Green and Black's espresso chocolate is a big hit in this household. Waitrose also stock it.

I've made mine with soya milk and zapped it with my stick-blender thingy. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Wonder what it's like with a spot of (medicinal) whisky!?
