  • anyone know where i can buy the chocolate teaspoons havent seen them anywhere?

    Tesco have them for 49p each, (chocolate stirrers) hanging by the coffee on strips. M & S have them for about £1.60 for 4, again hanging on strips. They are plastic sticks with a bobble of chocolate on you stir the coffee and they melt. - Not that I've tried them of course.:D
    A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.

    Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

    one life, live it!

    I thought tesco had little pots of baileys milk mixture you add to the coffee - like those little UHT milks you get in hotels etc. I can't find them online though

    Tipples I think they're called - they do a baileys and another flavour (possibly Amaretto)

    I'm not sure you'll get an answer James as this thread was created in 2007 and is now 12 years old. If you need suggestions you'll be better off making a new thread :D

    Gosh, twelve years ago! Doesn't time fly, eh?

    The coffee hamper I made was excellent (though don't ask me now after all this time exactly what I put in it). You can be sure that my FIL didn't appreciate it though, or bother to say thank you. He's always been a very grumpy man :)

    Probably too much caffeine...
