Sangria Saturday

"The recession is no excuse to drink bad wine"

That’s why we made sangria out of 3 for £10 bottles of Chardonnay and Merlot from Tesco!

The majority of the Marist flat contingent is out and about traveling (boys in Amsterdam, girls and a couple in Paris), so the Vassar kids are holding down the fort along with Aly, Trisha, and Alana from Marist.  Besides the obvious bonuses of reducing the amount of people in the flat to a mildly reasonable level, the highlight must be the kitchen availability.  We seized the opportunity and decided to make a batch of red (with apples, pears, and kiwis) and a batch of white (with peach schnapps and pineapple) sangria last night before going out in preparation for Sangria Saturday.  There have been talks of such an event since arrival, and it’s nice to have it finally come to fruition.  Needless to say, it’s going to be a delicious day!

I knew staying in London on the weekends would have its perks
