Journal: Melinda Bobbin
After several inquiries about this week’s special, I want to get the word out, that Sweet Nothings aren’t running any specials this week. Instead we’re focusing on getting the regular menu ready for autumn as well as putting the finishing touches to the hot chocolates that will be available during autumn and winter.

On a more personal note, I would like to thank everyone for their company and presents this weekend. You’ve made my birthday one to remember.

Private to Cho and Roger: There's a new line at Hot Crossed Buns. Saturday?

	Not that I have reason to be buying new fancy knickers, but you know I can't turn down a shopping trip. Roger - don't even think about weaseling out. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	And the rest of us do? What reason do you really need other than knowing you're wearing them? You really have to, Roger. Second and third opinions are required! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Come off it, you know I'll be there. If nothing else the fact that I keep going into the shop gives the gossip columnists plenty of fodder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, we've got to keep our social responsibilities in mind and keep those columnists employed. Megan said she'd have things ready for after Sweet Nothings' closing time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As long as Cho doesn't try and make me try on the knickers this time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't make you any promises there. Sorry, love. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	All your menus are special menus. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-28 06:38 am UTC (link)
	Thank you, I'm glad you think that. It would just sound pretentious if I had a year round special menu and then weekly super special menus, wouldn't it? Private to Oliver: Did I ever really thank you for the morning you gave me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oliverwoodwould 2014-08-28 06:48 am UTC (link)
	Naturally so. I've never met a pastry you've made that I haven't loved. Hmm...well, not in a bad way. Melinda You did a bit, but I could go for some more reminders. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-28 07:18 am UTC (link)
	Don't worry, I won't intentionally be setting out to prove you wrong on that one. Oliver Stop by the shop after closing time? I'm sure I have one or two, maybe even my own about when it's time to go home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oliverwoodwould 2014-08-28 06:58 pm UTC (link)
	Hmm, I still sense a challenge of some kind. Melinda I think that could be arranged. Shall I come prepared in some way, or will you take me as I am? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-28 07:09 pm UTC (link)
	So you're saying you'll be trying out everything on the menu? Or that you'll volunteer as test taster? Oliver I'll take you as you are, though I wouldn't object if your hands were clean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oliverwoodwould 2014-08-28 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	I'm saying both those things, yes. Melinda My hands are always clean. Well, when I'm not playing or in practice. But they will be when I see you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I truly will be Melinda Bobbin, Motivational Baker, then. You're hired! I'm working in the back so I've set the wards on the shop to let you through when you get here. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh? What kind of hot chocolates are you planning on offering? (Reply to this) (Thread)

There will be the 'plain' hot chocolate, made from high quality ingredients with a selection of different toppings, such as variations of chantilly cream, for instance, and we're currently making marshmallows by the sheet to have them all ready for thos who prefer that.

And then we're adjusting the more spicy variant of hot chocolate to get it just right and make the culinary magic happen there.

	Oh goodness, I didn't even know there were so many KINDS of hot chocolate! How delicious sounding! I'm sure I'll be in to sample more of your wares. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-28 07:20 am UTC (link)
	I haven't yet met two people who like their hot chocolates exactly the same. By all means, you're always welcome to come by to try out for yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	i love when the weather turns colder. Sweaters, scarves and hot chocolate are all reasons enough for me to love fall. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nothing better than to curl up in front of the fire with rough weather outside. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sew_perfect 2014-08-28 06:44 pm UTC (link)
	How very true. I find that large houses can sometimes be a bit frustrating in winter due to the draftiness, but fall is perfect. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-28 06:52 pm UTC (link)
	While I don't have a large house I do have large windows and that makes it all the more comfortable to watch it from the inside. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sew_perfect 2014-08-28 06:55 pm UTC (link)
	That does sound quite pleasant. A view of the outdoors is essential in any home, I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-28 07:05 pm UTC (link)
	I couldn't agree more. Even as a girl who grew up in Diagon Alley, I do need my windows and I cherish my rooftop garden, but I couldn't imagine NOT living in the city either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sew_perfect 2014-08-28 07:08 pm UTC (link)
	I definitely did not grow up in a city setting, but now that I spend most of my time here, I'm glad to be able to be where there is so much life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The place has been invigorated in the best possible way. I'm hoping it will continue like that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sew_perfect 2014-08-28 07:20 pm UTC (link)
	I do too. Though I imagine things might change when I move in with my future husband. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You'll be living in Monument Alley? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, I'll be living in his manor. At the moment I live most of the week in my flat above Twilfit & Tattings, and my family home at weekend. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_melinda_ 2014-08-28 07:33 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, like that. Yes, I can imagine that would make for quite a change, though I'm sure it'll be a good change. (Reply to this) (Parent)
