RHUBARB & CUSTARD BLONDIE…need I say more?

Well, I’ve thoroughly scalped me rhubarb bush down to the nub ends & yes, it was all so we could get another RHUBARB & CUSTARD BLONDIE on the counter for a Friday spesh, cos you went crazy for that stolen haul the other week!!!

For those of you who know us in the actual real world, you’ll know that mine & Holly’s level of gardening is moving the leaves from our placcy grass so I can worship the sun from a premium position of flat down, like a dropped sack of spuds & all the other dead overgrown weeds were ripped out during our lockdown videos & that’s where we stopped, it’s no Chelsea Flower Show, so we’re always equally chuffed/bewildered that the rhubarb keeps flourishing?! Is it part of the Japanese knotweed family, cos that stuff is feral too!!!

So, if you want to sample my un green fingered offerings, tomorrow we shall have our very own RHUBARB & CUSTARD BLONDIE on the counter & ready for you from 9am o’clocks!!!

(Yes, I can see the weeds round the bottom of it but it’s (hopefully) our busiest weekend of the year & I don’t want to add in an extra bend down before I’ve even started this stint!!)

We’re limbering up for (hopefully) our busiest weekend of the year, the ONLY time WE ARE OPEN ON A SUNDAY too!!!

Is anyone else calling the event ‘Midsummer Murders’ or is it just us going to be disappointed when T.V’s Bergerac heartthrob John Nettles doesn’t turn up looking pensive whilst chewing on a Bic Biro?

We are open Saturday with longer hours & Sunday for Father’s Day/hangover breakfasts (times to be confirmed closer to)!!

This weekend has been different every year but we really hope MIDSUMMER MIDDLEWICH will bring the people into our actual little town!!!

So, last night I went to get a fresh trim (so I can really feel that cold snap round the back of my ‘to the bone’ fat head) & I left clear instruction for Holly to get the tea on the table for my return!!

Well, she was flabbergasted at my audacity to request such a task of her because in our marriage she does the drinks (plus ALL the admin of running a business & the household) and I do the bites!!!!

Anyway, with womanly chores completed we had an early night in preparation for a SPLENDID SATURDAY, so if you’re after drinks from Holly & bites from me…we’ll see you at 9am o’clocks!!!

(I also asked her to complete a laundry task whilst I was out & I swear as I drove off she was open mouthed/mouthing something at me?!)

So we’re trying to bring a hint of summer feels today with our very exciting STRAWBERRIES & CREAM BLONDIE…even if it is raining AGAIN!!!

It’s our classic chewy, white choc chunk blondie, with s’blops of intense strawberry conserve, pockets of clotted cream & a shortbread crumb in it & on it!!!

I’m sure if you had a wedge of this & closed your eyes for a second to enjoy it; you’d be transported back in time to those 4 hot May days/the summer of 2026?!

What do people who live anywhere else in the world make smalltalk about? Because I’m fairly sure as a nation, if we didn’t have such changeable weather, we’d all be dumbfounded & at a loss for chit chat subjects?!?!

Look at us smug pair giving it all that with our swanky umbrellas…even though I had to stop the car in the road & reverse back to the house as Holly reminded me that all the bags for life were now in the shop & we’re about to drive away from a house full of brollies in this weather AGAIN!!!!

Hot chocolate, babez?

Not even a question you need to ask me, hunz!!!

You know when you’ve got maybe 37 umbrellas between under the stairs at home & the shop brolly stand, but sadly none in the car so you have to walk down wearing this years hottest fashion trend of a bloody bag for life…THAT!!!

See you at 9am o’clocks for a wet Wednesday!!

I can’t even talk about this weather any more, I’m getting on my own last nerve!!!

If this looks like a piece of you, on this disappointingly wet Saturday, then feel free to come see the gals!!!

We literally never share pictures of the food we serve cos we’re generally getting it out in record time!!!

Our BREAKFAST MENU is served from 9am-12pm on the dot! (you don’t need to question my 13 years in this business, motive for this cut off time) & our EPIC SANDWICH /TOASTIES/PANINI & CIABATTA side of the menu are served from 9am until 1pm on a Saturday (9am-2:30pm Monday - Friday)

We are proud to serve good, where we can home-made ingredients at a price that’s fairly middle of the road for what we’re about!!

Aaaaand if you appreciate a damn good oooze on your toasties…I’ll see you shortly!!

It’s Rhubarb & Custard Blondie time baby!!!

You either love it or you were forced to eat it raw as a child of the 80’s…but I LOVE IT!!!

It’s a custard flavoured, white choc chunk blondie, there’s swirls of custard & good sized blobs of stolen rhubarb!!!

Amongst all your regular cakey faves, breakfast shizzle, damn fine cwaffffeee, some epic sandwich creations & then us pair!!!

We’ll see you at 9am o’clocks to discus cranking back up the tumble drier & Springwatch…I’m sure we used to be cool?!

You shout “RHUBARB”

I’ll shout “CUSTARD”

I’m guessing you can work out from my subtle shouting what tomorrow’s flavour of exciting BLONDIE is going to be?

So, my rhubarb has been a bit of a let down this year & John who brought me a healthy bundle last year, told me his was too, then he leaned in & whispered to me that he was allotment sitting for friends on holiday, winked then handed me a concealed bag of contraband rhubarb!!!!

I’m not sure if I’m dealing in stolen goods here, but you lot won’t say anything, right?

Anyway, if you fancy a slice of our beautiful summery RHUBARB & CUSTARD BLONDIE in the morning, you know where it’s at…unless I’m in custardy!!!

I’ll get my coat!!!!

Thanks to all those who ‘liked & shared’ last nights post about the VAT thing, sadly because I’m absolutely not technical, I hadn’t realised if you share a ‘link in a post’ you don’t attract your usual, enthusiastic crowd!! So if you wanna find yesterday’s post, we’d love you forever!!!
