Post pretty
Thank you so much everyone for a lovely birthday! Isn’t this cake completely heavenly? I got it in the post, much to the amusement of the college porters. Thank you thank you thank you everyone for making my day so special
Barefoot
since the tragic loss of the Jericho Coffee Traders, I’ve been strolling the Oxford streets in search of a substitute supplier of exquisite flat whites and salted caramel brownies. Yesterday, I happened upon success. ‘Barefoot Coffee’ you are perfect.
Benedict
Ngl I walked down Turl St four times yesterday just in case Benedict Cumberbatch happened to emerge from Exeter college, where he’s filming Dr. Strange. Alas, to no avail.
Forgotten cookies
sometimes I feel sorry for the weird cookie cutters that live at the bottom of the basket
Christmas crumpets and coffee
My Christmas present from Dad was crumpets and coffee in Cambridge, and a spot of pre-uni-return shopping
Crisp
Moomin thank-yous
Study/spying
I intended to write my essay yesterday afternoon, but eavesdropping on the Tinder date going on next to me proved a shameful distraction.
Farfalle
Today I am making homemade pasta because pasta > studying
2 forks?!
Everyone looks at us like we’re crazy when we ask for a second fork. When there are two of us and one slice of cake, it should be assumed.
Home so grey
Happy birthday, dad!
I tried to write ‘DAD’ in candles, but it just turned into kind of a splodge. Ever since I can remember, mum’s been making this chocolate amaretti tart for my dad’s birthday. Last year was my first attempt – I halved the recipe but forgot to halve the liquid glucose. Whoops! This year, though… Yum!
