(Dim) light at the end of the tunnel
Sally had the first half of her Final Exams on Friday and Saturday. The second half is in 6 weeks' time.
After studying for so long, and after two gruelling days, she was exhausted on Saturday. The first day of the exams went well, the second day was okay. After the exams (and after a couple of strong drinks) Sally went to bed early saturday evening, hoping to catch up on all the lost sleep over the last few days/weeks/months.
She woke up at 6am! It's hard to break the habit of a lifetime.
We decided to go out for breakfast at Babka's. I am having the House specialty, the Russian Blintze. It's a hand-rolled pancake envelope, panfried until golden, stuffed with a cream cheese and sultana filling, zesty with lemon, and served with a burnt sugar citrus sauce. Sally's having the French Toast. Both very yummy.
