Tsatziki and Calamari

So here i am, Benny, reporting from the absolute amazing holidays I had. Me and my family went to Crete for a week. It was amazing. We stayed in a beautiful hotel at the beach, and all I did was swimming in the sea, the pool, eating so much food and just relaxed. Of course we also saw bits of Crete, had two trips around the island and saw some archaelogical excavations because my family is like crazy about greek myths and all that stuff. Now i am back in cold Dublin, all alone in the boarding house, trying not to think about all the school stuff i missed, aargh. And because the Kettle was taken away from us I can't even enjoy the luxury of tea in our dorm. Russel, it is just not the same without you. That's all for now i will have a more detailed post later.

a sunday smile

Hi my lovelies, it's Raya reporting from what's sure to be another interesting sunday from the boarding house. I think I can safely say that Aoife and Benny are by far the most interesting roomates to live with and we share a mutual love of tea.

My tea choice these past few weeks has been Yorkshire which is so lovely on a sunday morning when all you want to do is live underneath your bedcovers.

While Aoife and I are stuck here in rainy Ireland, Benny is on holiday with her family in Crete, getting a tan and sipping cocktails by the sea...tan is overrated anyway. I've been living off cheese toasties recently due to the lack of edible food here in the boarding house. I think I might just eat at least three a day. And a cup of tea (or two) with each!

I'm off to the seaside this afternoon with a friend so I'll put up some pictures when I get back; but until then I've been surfing http://www.modcloth.com/ (if you love all things quirky and retro check it out) and I'm thinking of ordering these beauts!





 I'll probably end up spending all of this months allowence on this stuff but I can live with pot noodles and cheap tea until then if I can have these!

Love always..
