45 m. ago Back to school, work, reality: what to eat now summer is over

The shift from August to September can be brutal, so we’ve compiled the best dishes to avoid the dread of the work canteenSeptember arrives and, with it, the sudden, brutal gear shift from slow, lazy August, the mad rush to catch up on all the work you’ve been neglecting, to reconnect with the friends who’ve been away during summer. It’s back to the commute, back to work, back to school We are also back at school – every Thursday for the past few years we’ve been taking pottery classes at college.
