There's nothing better than................

cornflakes with hot milk, as a late night snack.

Bloody hell, you must be the first ever person I know who agrees with me about hot milk on cornflakes, it's great on rice krispies too.

We used to eat it as a kids on winter mornings. Rice bubbles/crispies are a summer thing so that's a cold milk one for me.

what's a "nothing better than" for you Betty?

food wise I can't think of a lot whilst gluten free and wheat free are ok nothing is quite as good as it used to be. Therefore, there's nothing better than glutenous and wheat laden food!



In general there's nothing better than just being left alone, I quite like my own company and even in lockdown there's not a lot of chance of that!

Fresh bread roll with butter, tasty cheese and vegemite for morning tea. Makes a good comfort food on a frosty morning at work.

Mac and cheese or pancakes! Ever since I was a kid if I didn't feel 100% for one thing or another I always wanted either Mac and Cheese or pancakes! They are my comfort foods. :D

We found some Orange Cream popsicles at the store the other day.
Oh, my.
Nothing better than sitting in the shade eating an Orange Cream Popsicle on a warm Fall day.

Of course, but I’d use Lee & Perrins rather than five spice.

You should try it. I meant to use Mixed Spice, but used Chinese 5 Spice by mistake. Works well.

There's nothing better than....... a ham cheese and tomato toasty with a bowl of tomato or pumpkin soup on a winters night after work, when you can't be bothered cooking a whole meal.

I very often do those for lunch - only the ham is pariza ‘cos they don’t do proper ham and the cheese is feta and there loads of oregano scattered about, deliciousness on a plate.

Technically Welsh Rarebit is a slightly different thing as, when done properly, is uses a Cheese Sauce, made with Cornflour.

My dad made the proper one with worcestishire sauce but I just do the cheese and what ever is at hand. sometimes I mix grated cheese with banana .

I just discovered scrambled eggs with cream....instead of milk.

Devine! softest eggs I've had in a long time.
