You missed out the ingredient of me mocking you through the entire process.

And it's not "sweetened milk". It's hot milk with a spoonful of honey stirred in. It is exact! :D

helle_d March 23 2013, 23:18:33 UTC

That is sweetened milk!

frith_in_thorns March 23 2013, 23:20:32 UTC

But sweetened very specifically!

My household has always used honey and lemon (sometimes lemon squash, sometimes lemon juice in boiling water). Hot milk sounds most odd (but I have never really liked milk, anyway).

I am judging your combination a bit. But if you say it sounds good, than I am intrigued!

Hope you feel better soon.

The oregano was added because she knocked over the pot of oregano and then decided she might as well scrape it off the worksurface into her drink.

helle_d March 23 2013, 23:23:18 UTC

But! It was added because I thought it would complement my flavour palate well. You make it sound so much worse than it was!

Oh. I hope the work surface was otherwise clean! (I suppose boiling water and alcohol would make everything okay, though.)

I was more of a 'refuse to drink anything at all until bribed/bullied/put on a drip' child, but in retrospect I think it kept my parents on their toes.

Ginger wine + rum sounds delicious. I want to give Camille some.

helle_d March 23 2013, 23:49:25 UTC

Ahaha, it just adds to the challenge!

It is very much delicious. Camille would be most appreciative, particularly with lemon juice.

helle_d March 23 2013, 23:50:31 UTC

(Did Camille have particular food and drink that he liked?)

Also, I have bought APoGS to take with me on holiday next week. I am looking forward to it! A lot!

'Camille had never been one to eat' - QUOTATION FROM BOOK.

But he liked wine and absolutely adored coffee; their flat was full of coffee pots and stuff. (We know this because it was inventoried AFTER THEY DIED.) So, you know, I'm on board with that.

HURRAH JUBILATION! This completely delights me. :D :D :D
