Just awoken from a nap and need a pick-me-up? Stroopwafel. Post work with a sneaky dark beer? Stroopwafel. After dinner and need a little sweet thing? Stroopwafel. Don’t need refrigeration, pretty robust, won’t go stale or soft, even slightly heatable to go all squidgy etc. I’m not saying they’re perfect, but they hit a lot of targets . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This heats the waffle and slightly softens the syrup making the waffle soft on one side and slightly crispy on the other. Delicious! If you prefer your stroopwafel with cold milk, the answer is simple" sub hot coffee, tea or chocolate with HOT CIDER 😅 Edited May 7, 2022 by gazzared 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyT Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 Found the poles and the phoenix has risen. Over the moon there wasn’t 3 year old vomit to clean up inside like I thought there might be 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosj Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 Spent most of today so far repairing the van, finding evidence of mice, chewed sheets, foam and flags. I was going to replace some wood in the garage door but I can't get the 17 year old screws out so it'll be filler on solid wood. Washed the non chewed sheets, decanted spirits into plastic bottles, treated the roof and sides to wet and forget, cleaned the water tank, sinks. Looking for a deep clean of the van after Glastonbury before I take MrsCJ away in it 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlastoMom Posted May 8, 2022 Report Share Posted May 8, 2022 Found cans of Peroni in Tesco (£12 for 10 330ml) and gave them a road test - not bad! Also found a box of Henry Weston vintage cider so bought a bottle of that to try. My Blundstone boots arrived to plenty of time to walk those in.

Crazyfool01 Posted May 8, 2022 Report Share Posted May 8, 2022 if you haven't yet .... today is a perfect day for getting out your tent and giving it a check/ waterproof for the gods .... give it an hour or so for the grass to dry off so its dry when you back it away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about about 8 years old and probably on its way out - but I'm still rather fond of it. It's not as big as it may appear in the pic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
