one of my New Year’s resolutions is to either blog or Instagram (@a_scone_atatime) once a day. This will undoubtedly be a challenge in term time when I am in the depths of student eating, which is hardly inspiring or aesthetically pleasing. Yesterday, though, I had entirely forgotten that everywhere would be shut on New Year’s Day and back in my student house was forced to embrace a diet of crumpets and Bendick’s bittermints. Despite the seemingly unappealing nature of this development, I discovered both that crumpets are actually very photogenic, and also that I am quite content to survive on them indefinitely.
