Had a lovely tea today at Tea and Tattle with the lovely Rachel who I haven't seen in ages. Utter amazingness-- I had chamomile tea with a scone that had raspberry vanilla jam and clotted cream on it. Pretty sure I could feel my aorta clogging as I ate. Don't care. Worth it. Rachel had a tea for one and was kind enough to let me try her lemon drizzle cake which was also fantastic. Gotta love England.
She was telling me about the potential healthcare reform as well as the rising cost of education, which I've overheard students protesting against in the square near where I live. She's a med student so it was really interesting to hear about it from her.
A great day...looking forward to more of this with the rest of the UK Waukeela girls!!
Day 6 of chocolateering: Crunchie
"Milk chocolate with a golden honeycombed centre"
It's kind of weird, but in a good way. It's definitely fun to eat... the texture is really interesting. It is very crunchy but with lots of little air bubbles. It tastes like honey but not super sweet. Definitely try it!
We LOVE Crunchie bars - also Flakes in ice cream...MMMMMM
ReplyDelete-Mimi R. (not really agnes - long story) We lived in London 2 1/2 yrs and Daniel was born there -- enjoy it all!
You like the funny candy bars, but just you wait until you have an unbearable craving for Oreos... even if you think you're not a big fan of them. (I know where to find them...)
ReplyDelete(OTOH it is now 25 years later, so maybe they have Oreos everywhere now. In which case... never mind.)
