Another Sunday, another week gone by. Time is flying! It's only a short three weeks until I go on adventures in London with my best friend, and I am counting down the days with a hearty dose of incredulity. I'm pretty sure we agreed to go yesterday and now it's already here? Say whaaaat.

+ Spent my Sunday afternoon making these cinnamon rolls--great if you have a craving and don't want to make a big batch. Mine weren't vegan and I had some trouble getting them to rise in our cold basement flat, but they tasted great all the same!

+ You could not pay me enough money to drive on this roundabout made of roundabouts.

+ Catzooka, anyone?

+ The amazing Katherine Johnson, who worked for NASA as a mathematician. They even had her check the computer's calculations.

Since I've got this weekend getaway coming up, I'm looking for your best London tips! Any can't-miss restaurants or favorite secret gems? Help a girl out in the comments below :)



  1. I gasped when I saw that roundabout. I just moved to NZ from AZ and driving on the wrong side of the road is bad enough but throw in a roundabout or two? Good lord. My favorite place in London is the Rose Garden in Hyde Park! The whole garden is amazing this time of year. Kinda touristy, but the Churchill War Rooms are really cool. It's easy to spend a few hours there listening to all the narratives. The Breakfast Club used to be a hidden gem, but it's starting to become popular. So if you can, head over there before it loses its cozy little hidden gem feel!

    1. I will definitely have to give the Rose Garden a visit! And the Churchill War Room sound amazing for a history geek like me. :) Is NZ as amazing as it looks in photos? I'm dying to go for a visit!!
