Today was a very special day for me. If you haven't heard of cronuts before, they basically are a doughnut-croisant combination that formed in a small bakery in New York and the rest is history. Queues outside, celebrities flying in, sold out everyday. Everyone went mental. Gregg's caught on, created the Greggsnut; but decided to only sell it in selected London stores. I know, how rude! Well, until now... because I saw them in my local Greggs and couldn't believe my eyes so just had to buy one!! They were only £1 as well! (I love things that are £1, just so you know).
It felt like the most beautiful calorific baked good I'd ever set my eyes on. Caramel and pecan too, even better. Such a guilty pleasure, but it's okay because I had avocado on toast for breakfast! The healthiest my breakfast gets is having the fattiest fruit on toast; but it's good fats! For those who have never had it, here's a picture. A bit gruesome looking, but delicious none the less. My sister likes to mix it with salt, cream cheese and spring onions for a tea time snack, if that sort of mixture floats your boat.
In other news, Santa came to town with Rory the lion (Middlesbrough Football Club's mascot). I got so excited for Christmas and wanted to join the long line of kids and parents, but my parking time was up and I headed home with a cronut finally in my belly and a Costa to go.
