Newlywed life - My new neighborhood in London and funny pix

So I'm 1 week in as a London resident. It's been lovely so far and I've walked EVERYWHERE. I really love the architecture, buzz, and history in the city.

We live in a tiny studio in a great location though so the space will be nice and challenging. Imagine living on 2 burners, a fridge that goes up to your knees, and 1 combo microwave/convection oven! Yes, cooking has been a challenge. I no longer fry/sautee anything.

But we are in our first place together and it's been cool. It's interesting meeting people for the first time and introducing yourselves as a married couple - they only know you as a unit now. We've slowly gotten used to it though. After the initial giggles, we are simply husband and wife. I didn't feel that different, but he said he did because he's much more a part of my family. He even calls my mom and dad "ma" and "pa" now (like me). :)

Anyhoo, I can hardly miss the craziness of NYC when I see such fun things here in performance art, baking and restaurants right by us! If you try of the restaurants, let me know!

Ben's cookies - don't they look like rolls and they're huge!
Ahhh yes, authentic American Fried Chicken!Texas Embassy restaurant (couldn't get the state flag that was at the side)
