flatmate send off


today was one of my flatmate’s, coco’s, last day. remember that bucket list that coco and i had made at the beginning of the trip? lemon mint juice was the last item on our list (well, unless you count “learn arabic,” and it’s still a bit questionable whether we are able to cross that item off). i’d been really excited to make it and i also figured it would be a good way to send coco off. i really want to grow herbs in my backyard now! so i can make this yummy number all the time. additionally, we had a cute lunch of garlic & spinach cous cous and tomato, onions, cucumber salad, which coco and her friend juliet prepared.



to make:
• 6 lemons
• shit-ton of sugar
• shit-ton of mint
• shit-ton of water

squeeze the lemons. (this was hard work!) add lemon juice, sugar (add into boiling water), mint leaves, and water (include the boiling water used to melt the sugar into your measurements) into blender. refrigerate and serve chilled.



oh ye bucket list.



now that laura has gone back to edinburgh and coco is on her way to doha, it’s just me & zara until wednesday.
