Favorite Memories from School/Sixth Form

This wonderful memory of my friends came to mind this morning and I just thought I'd write it down along with a few others. My friends are fantastic. I'm sure everyone can say that about their nearest and dearest and when I think back memories from school and sixth form with them I can't help but laugh. Earlier this morning when I was thinking about some funny times I just had to say something about it, so here's a list of a few favorite moments.

The Middle Class Antics

- Amber, Esme and Lucia brought me granola and yogurt when I had the flu
- Me, Amber, Esme and Lucia used to eat olives and chocolate Alpro Soya milk from Budgens after school in the park
- Tapas was our Friday night
- Esme taught me how to cut an avocado and I did a terrible job
- Wednesday dips for lunch with Tilda
- Antonio and Tilda's hot tub party

Pure Hilarity
- Attempting to rap for Georgie and getting attacked by thorns
- Drunkenly screaming with laughter with Esme so many times
- Drunkenly trying to wake up Esme's brother with a hair dryer
- Mine and Amber's sense of humor: imagining a man having a solo water fight, bored tourist and imitating Donkey from Shrek
- Our routine of going into a 21+ bar when we were underage
- Drunkenly showering in front of Ella with nothing but a bra on
- Thinking Aidan was always high when I first met him- he was just tired in the mornings.
- When Iz stood on a mouse during the first holiday
- Lotte's Ja'mie impression
- Tilda rocking on that boat on the first holiday

Joyful Times
- The holiday each year- especially mac and cheese night and quiz night
- Secret Santa with the Fortismere crew
- New Years Eve with the Fortismere crew
- Sitting in Georgies garden chatting nonsense for hours after school
- Creating a 'silent disco' at Lucia's house with Amber, Esme and Luc and it was very lame
- Meeting Joey and getting free champagne along Carnaby Street

Obviously these are all very personal and won't mean much to those who don't know these people, but it's nice to look back on school and think about the good/funny times rather than the horrible GCSEs, A levels and figuring yourself out. This is a post that I will read in the future when I want to look back on nice memories and something I just wanted written down.
What is your funniest school memory?

5 Cheese Shops Every Cheese-a-holic should head to

As someone who is obsessed with cheese I have spent a fair amount of time sussing out London's most fabulous cheese mongers. There are so many to bring up, but I thought I would go with the five that I return to most frequently. So at number 1: Paxton and Whitfield. Dating back to the 1700s, Paxton and Whitfield is London's oldest cheese shop and stocks amazing cheeses from around the world. I come here annually to buy cheese for Christmas day, and I am unashamed to admit it's probably one of my favorite expeditions of the year. They serve something for everyone from creamy goats cheese to smack you in the face blues. The range is extensive and the staff are happy to help you pick the perfect cheeses to match your pallet and the occasion. Number 2: La Fromagerie. Based in Highbury and Mayfair this cheese shop holds an authentic feel and is the first experience I'd had of a cheese shop. I go to the one in Highbury and Islington as it's local to me and I never...

Recipe of the Week: Taramasalata

As a new feature of my blog I've decided to write a recipe each week. These will vary in terms of if i'm trying to have a healthy week or an indulgent one so you'll certainly get an idea of what's in my food shop- but who doesn't love to be nosey ey? So kick starting the first weekend of 2018 my recipe of the week is homemade taramasalata! Ever since being diagnosed with coeliac I knew this would be the hardest thing to give up. When people ask me what I miss the most they probably expect to hear pizza or fresh bread but that isn't the case for me. Taramasalata is my favorite food ever and since I can't buy it in the shop anymore I've had to learn how to make it myself. For those who aren't familiar with what it is, it's basically a fresh greek dip made from smoked cod roe that is zesty, oniony and really smoky. As my friend Melina describes it it's 'greek caviar but better'; I must admit I agree with her.  The tricky part is...

Porto, Portugal

Ahhh Porto, where to begin? The people were lovely, the place was stunning and the food was exceptional. This was a much needed break after university and the realities of grad life. We started our trip flying with TAP Portugal which is one of the nicest airlines I've ever used.. we got free wine! Once we'd landed we got on the metro to our hotel in Balhou. Porto's metro is like a much nicer tube; it's spacious, air conned and very easy to understand. When coming up the stairs of Balhou station we were greeted by this stunning church (one I'd been hoping to see from my Instagram research) which was breathtaking and set a great tone for the holiday.  Our hotel was alright, but its location was why we chose it; it was nice to be in the heart of Porto and made travelling around so easy. On our first evening we went for a glass of wine (standard) and then a concert of Fado and Flamenco which offered a festive introduction to Portuguese culture. We then wen...
