There is nothing like the bread in Israel- I went with my parents when I was 11 years old and still remember how addictive and satisfying it was. So fresh.

I'd never thought to combine my love of Twinings Earl Grey and Gin, but now I can't wait! I've just suggested it to my sister as the beverage we should drink at our next bookclub night, it so...
