OK. So crumpets are more like bread (or English muffins to be precise) and scones are more like cake, usually sweet with fruit and nuts or chocolate. That is the consensus I have reached from google. It's a little sad that I felt the need to google this, but I thought it an important part of my research! Don't you agree? Also started salivating at a white chocolate cherry scone recipe. Umm, yeah. Sounds amazing!
In other news...I have successfully found a rain coat that has a zip out lining so that I can adjust from warmer days to wet, damp winter times! According to Ellen Haun (another wonderful BADA alum willing to share her experiences with me--THANK YOU ELLEN!), it did not rain all that much during last fall's semester. Hmm...sounds like I might be over-prepared with my rain coat, boots, and umbrella. Is there such a thing as overprepared? Not in my book there's not!
I also got an adapter from the apple store for my computer (be prepared to spend about $40 for this, but you might be able to find a cheaper one on the internet. The one I got is also for Japan, China, Korea, Australia, and Hong Kong, so maybe one of my friends will buy it off of me when I am done).
I'm excited to travel in style!! Watch out London, here I come!

hey! so excited that you started a blog- i wish i had. did you buy an adapter or a converter for your computer? if you bought an adapter you should have spent at MOST ten bucks. you can buy the right ones right on edgware road (where you will be living) for five pounds. converters you can buy for less $20 or so and I would recommend getting one for any appliances you bring (your computer won't need one if it has a converter box on the power cord-which it most likely does). hope this helps save you a bit of money!
