This blog will be about my latest escape plan.... leaving my job to become a grad-student and moving from Cambridge,MA USA to Cambridge UK. There will be both blue and gray sky moments as I try to fumble my way through my new surroundings and an ocean out of my comfort zone.

Jam Roly Poly and An Abbey's Winter Garden.....Cure for Hang-Over!!



After Saturday night's oompahing, I woke up Sunday to get ready to check out the winter Gardens at Angleshey Abbey. http://www.angleseyabbey.org/

A lovely co-worker offered to take me and another lab-mate along with her family. I was so excited on the ride over to be in someone's car. Many know… that back in the States I was a big driver. I drove ALL the time and everywhere. Not having a car or having the courage to drive on the other side of the road was going to be my biggest adjustment. There are times that it is odd but it is nice to not have that worry….makes my life a little simpler.

We went all around the Abbey and the winter garden. It was lovely. As we walked I was feeling better....trying to recover from the Hang-Over. Then we went into the little cafe area and my friend said, "Shall we all try their Jam Roly-Poly?" I had NO idea what this was. So I said, "Is this a drink or food?" They explained it was a spongy cake with Jam and custard.

I love trying new things and went for it. Folks it was delicious and just what I needed to help cure the excessive Oktoberfesting...

Jam Roly Poly.....Loving It!!!!!
