Chocolate and chili combination

Always smiling @allknowing (143929) • India 17 Apr

There was a programme on TV this morning about the exotic taste of combining chocolate with chili. That is a new trend these days - combining uncommon tastes. I have mixed sweet and spicy tastes and the outcome is that it tastes...

Fleur I have tried chocolate with added chilli, it was pleasantly warming! A chilli added to hot chocolate was good. And I have sometimes added chocolate to chilli con carne.

Judy Evans @JudyEv (351012) • Rockingham, Australia 17 Apr

MyLotter Fleur (@Fleura) wrote about being careful what you wish for. When we first moved to the city about 13 years into our marriage, we found all sorts of opportunities waiting for us. One of these was the chance to attend...

Oh look yet another school shooting again

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (122381) • United States 17 Apr

Wasn't there just another one like 2 days ago? Welcome to life in America where people's rights to have guns are more important than people's lives to live. They now say we just have to "get used to it". Yup now there is another...

Fleur As you say it is truly bizarre that the so-called 'pro-life' people want to force children on those who don't want them, but allow the killing of children who are much loved and wanted.

Wild Witch (2018)

celticeagle @celticeagle (173249) • Boise, Idaho 17 Apr

I found the cutest movie on Tubi last night. It is taken from a juvenile fantasy book series written by Danish-born Lene Kaaberol. It is a six-part series. It is about a 12-year-old girl who is scratched by a black cat. She...

She was very happy and so was I. I´m sure that if the cake stayed there I would have eaten it. She also took with her a lot of veggies that I don´t want to eat. After she went away, my brother called me and told me that he would...

Like losing an arm when the site goes down

Judy Evans @JudyEv (351012) • Rockingham, Australia 16 Apr

We all had problems with the site yesterday. I kept going back and forth trying to get on. I was very surprised when one discussion ‘took’. I thought at that point that it was all good again but no – still couldn’t read or...

Fleur I have never seen the documentary or the film. At the time Titanic came out, I had just split from my then-boyfriend after 12 years so I wasn't in the mood for a love story!

Are there any museums you’d like to visit?

Amber @AmbiePam (97287) • United States 15 Apr

I would love to visit the Mutter Museum in Philadelphia. It has all sorts of medical fascinations. I’m not usually one for museums, but when I saw a TV piece done by Mike Rowe back in 2016 on his then show, “Someone’s Gotta Do It”...

Fleur I am a keen museum visitor, I always find something interesting and spend ages reading all the little details. I like ones that have a mixture of things; too much of one subject I just find all too overwhelming.

Four Walls @FourWalls (73695) • United States 13 Apr

The guinea pigs didn't like being segregated

Judy Evans @JudyEv (351012) • Rockingham, Australia 14 Apr

Mates For Life

celticeagle @celticeagle (173249) • Boise, Idaho 14 Apr
