A Spider.
Add 1 scoop of ice cream to a tall glass
Add your favourite carbonated fruity beverage
To be truly an Aussie drink the fizzy cordial needs to be Lime or Creaming soda
One of the Christmas cookies my family has are called "Spiders", I know they sometimes go buy other names. 12 OZ Chocolate Chips
12 OZ Butterscotch Chips
6 OZ Chow Main Noodles.
1/2 cup Cashews
Melt all chips, quickly stir in Noodles and Cashews. Use 2 dinner spoons to scoop on to wax paper to cool, once chilled they come right off the wax paper, and can be stored in a ziplock bag.
Cookies made from noodles? Interesting! Are those noodles cooked or dry?!

I think they are deep-fried to puff them up and make them crunchy.

Yeah those are tasty, but my mom makes them with marshmallows instead of cashews.

It's time again! So.... What are you eating, snacking, drinking, sipping while reading "Children of Time"? Anything inspired by the book maybe?
And because I don't want to hear any distressing coded messages from someone, I am not asking any AI for an appropriate drink suggestion this month, instead I have just chosen a cocktail that felt appropriate! So here we have the
Absinthe Spider Highball:
0.5 oz Absinthe
2 dashes Angostura bitters
4 oz Ginger Ale
Pour all ingredients into an ice-filed glass and garnish with a Lime Wedge!
And now it's your turn!
