Day 27: Saturday lectures

Yep its that time again.  6 hours of lectures on a Saturday.

Its so weird being down lawyerville (around Holborn) around 9am on Saturday.  It is dead.  I mean, like, 28 Days Later dead.

Me at 9am on a Saturday on my way to lectures, obvs.

Breakfast

• Challenge compliant muffin 

Lunch

The trouble with it being dead around here on Saturdays, is that most of the food outlets are closed.  Damn people with actual weekends.

Managed to acquire:

• Edamame salad with muki and green beans, broccoli, leaves, avocado, sesame seeds, 1 boiled egg
• Miso soup

Tea

I think my friend had intended (in his own bizarre non-organised way) that tonight would be our "night out".  But he forgot that our friend was flying back to Sweden in the morning.  And by morning I mean 7am, from Heathrow.  This meant she was up at 4.30am to get to the airport, check in and all that fun stuff.  

Now back int day this would have meant (without further thought) that we would be going out and coming for 4.30am.  But since we are supposed to be grown up now (actually its more because my friend has started his first ever) full time job [how is that possible at the age of 26? avoidance through continuous higher education, that's how] and hence had just done his second ever week of full time hours) what it actually meant was we stayed in, cooked, drank a little wine, talked, and watched shite tv.  Ahhhh..

So we ate (home made):

• Baked aubergine with fried onions and lemon (cumin, chilli, garlic, sumac, seasoning)
• Crispy kale

From a great, simple recipe from the Plenty book by Yotam Ottolenghi (which I happened to buy recently when I was in London, but Hannah already had herself anyway).  I thought I'd written about this book on here before, but can't find it.  Anyway, great book.

I declined the Kettlechips and dips (and Haribo - I'm used to that anyway), and wasn't at all bothered.

That just leaves the red wine.  I'm not proud of it.  But I'm not ashamed either.  It was totally appropriate in the circumstances, and a lovely, cosy evening.  

Snuggling with friends.  Can't beat it, really.
