Chocolate Chip Scone & Cappuccino
The first thing I realised this morning as I walked to the bus stop was that it is cold today. Cold, grey, windy and although it’s not raining right now, it has been. The only concession to summer was the slight scent of cut grass on the wind. That’s it. Pretty paltry in my opinion.
The second thing I observed this morning is that some people really annoy me. Now, that’s not exactly news, but the specific annoyance this morning was the man sat next to me on the bus. Although I’m partial to cake and chocolate, I’m not an especially large person, I think I take up a fair amount of the seat on a bus, certainly no more than my part of it. The man next to me seemed to want to take up the whole seat, and most of the space in between our seat and the next one. The thing was, he wasn’t a big guy, just someone who feels that they have the right to spread out, legs wide open, elbowing me and leaning against my right arm. I dealt with this like a true Englishwoman – I sighed loudly and made a big deal about moving further across the seat so I was pressed against the wall. Made no difference. Completely oblivious he was.
Anyway, the bus experience and the cold led me to feel that I deserved s a treat for breakfast, which is why I’ve just polished off a chocolate chip scone and I have a cappuccino next to me too.
