Today has been Almond Day! I spent most of the afternoon and evening at my friend Miles’s flat cooling party (the opposite of a house warming as he’s moving out). On route to the party I went past the supermarket to pick up drinks and some almonds. I hadn’t given any particular thought to how I would celebrate once I had them and they stayed in my bag for a bit once I got there. A couple of friends have been following the blog since I started it and asked what today was so I told them and that I had almonds on me. We decided the best way to celebrate would be to get everyone involved. It took a bit of explaining to get everyone on board with why I needed them to eat almonds but everyone was intrigued and went with it. Jamie one of Miles’s housemates is really allergic to nuts so instead of partaking he agreed to take the photo and then we would all wash our hands before we went near him again.
Right as we finished eating them and taking photos Nora came out of the bathroom and we realised we’d missed her. I took a seperate photo of her eating a celebratory almond and then put them away so no one killed Jamie.
Almond day… almonds are okay but celebrating almonds with friends is great, 9/10!
