Soops Kitchen, a friendly place of refuge

Thank you for opening up the new kitchen GG
I’ll add some crisps and nibbles on the side, plump up the cushions and put another log on the fire

It sounds a cosy place and I need some comfort and warmth. Please may I join you?

Thank you,GG13 for opening up this delightful kitchen.
I’ll pop down more nibbles and wine. 🍕🍟🍷

Lovely Kitchen, thank you. I’ve brought pots of snowdrops and bags of doughnuts for everyone - including you, Boheminan!

Dh had a specialist’s appointment today. As he’s not been at all well we were very worried but the news wasn’t as bad as we’d feared. Better still, he can have a treatment (one session of radiotherapy) that hopefully will restore him to relatively good health for the time being.

I hope Soop and MrSoop are managing ok and that other Kitchen folk with health and family concerns find some peace.

TOYA. Xxx

Hi Gg, i'm always up for fizz .🍾🥂

DH has kindly shared his cold with me so I ave been hiding in the quiet corner.

(...Doughnuts and snowdrops) and whiskers on kittens?

Thank you SueDonim .

Thank you for opening the new kitchen grannygravy, it ‘s cosy and warm in here. Welcome boheminan.

sueD, good news about your DH, I hope the treatment will improve his health, so he can enjoy life again.

kitty that wasn’t very kind of your DH, I hope you’re not suffering too much!
Best wishes to all in the quiet corner.

Thank you, GrannyGravy, it's wonderful to see the continuity of Soop's special Kitchen. I hope you're feeling more like yourself these days.

I've brought lots of tulips and daffodils for the tables and window ledges, plus cheese board. Cosy throws and cushions for the Quiet Corner, where all are welcome to rest and recharge batteries, especially on difficult days.🥰

Today has been brighter and milder, perhaps spring is finally on its way? Hoping our friends in the south have passed the worst of the flooding.🤞

I've had a busy day. I took my friend to Mass and the Coffee Morning, then I had my dental checkup, followed by my cut and colour at the hairdressers. Always feel better after that! The ladies in the salon are really friendly, always providing tea and biscuits while the colour is 'cooking'.

Tomorrow I have my Strength and Balance class in the morning, then massage at GP surgery in the afternoon. After that I must bag the birthday gifts and write all the cards. I still find it hard writing only my name on the cards, Mum/ Gran instead of Mum and Dad/ Gran and Papa. I know that many of our dear kitchen friends understand this. ♥️

Wishing everyone a peaceful Wednesday evening and a good night's sleep.
TOYA, NNGB.

Hello 👋 and welcome, Boheminan!

Glad to hear your DH's good news, SueD.
Kitty, I recommend a medicinal toddy...or two!

Hello kitcheners! Lovely kitchen 😊 I have left warm scones and soup for this cold spell.

This evening I joined my first line dancing session. Great fun.

grannmarie it still doesn’t feel right to just write my name on cards and gifts, although I’ve been on my own for five years. I sympathise!
My car mechanic rang this afternoon to say my elderly Fiesta seems to have “lost it’s get up and go”. (A bit like its owner really!). He thinks he can sort the problem out, no doubt a hefty bill, but worth it.
Night night everyone, sleep tight.

Thank you baggs for welcome news of soop and the infusions to help her. Her resolve amid all her health issues is inspiring.
SueDonim best wishes to your DH.
Cheers to everyone who visits here and
I have put Ginger wine on the side with a dish of cashew nuts.
Thanks Gg for opening up.

Hello kitchen people - and a new kitchen!

I made a new recipe today, marmalade ice cream. You can all try some if you like.

Sleep 💤 tight.

Thank you for opening up GG and for the bubbles.

Sorry to hear about your DH’s generosity kitty.
Sleep tight every one.

Thanks, Redcar. I hope your mechanic can give your car a new lease of life.🚗🤞

Thank you Grannygravy for opening Soops kitchen. I'll bring hot cocoa given that I'm still awake.

I've popped over from the early waking up thread to say hello, but I can see you are all asleep so will creep out after whispering hello to Boheminan who I had a lovely long PM chat to about childhood in SE Kent a while back.
Will shut the door quietly..I have pinched a left over scone. Thank you.

I know that fgt used to post on here regularly. I also know she is having a very tough time.
Does anyone have any recent news, and how things are?

I often wonder too Grandmattie I think some GNers are in regular touch with gft
Several of us on here have been through the same difficult time so we know all about it.
I wish them well.
Having said that it is nice to have a warm welcoming kitchen to pop into, Thankyou to all who have provided goodies, they are appreciated.

Without breaking confidence could those who pray keep fgt and her family in your prayers, (in your thoughts, if you don’t) as they go through a very hard time in their lives. She is being amazingly strong but the power of Soop’s Kitchen can only help. 🙏

So glad to see this new Soop Kitchn open. Thank you, GG13.
