A slightly belated post (due to the craziness that was exams and my subsequent celebrations), but here's another one from my revision snack box. As you might have gathered, I'm a big fan of 'crisp alternatives', like rice cakes, lentil curls, popcorn and pitta chips. I also love the flavours of red pepper and chilli, so naturally I was drawn to these 'Red Pepper and Chilli Pitta Bakes' from Walkers, as part of their Sunbites range. You can also pick them up in a 'Cheddar and Onion' flavour if you fancy something milder.

LET'S EAT - Zizzi Italian
After a whirlwind week of last-minute revision, my exams are over and I am officially no longer an undergraduate student! I'm also not technically a graduate, considering that the papers are yet to be marked and the ceremony doesn't take place until July... so I'm not really sure what I can class myself as for the next month or so. 'Exhausted' and 'relieved' are perhaps two good alternatives.
Anyway, I really just wanted to nap after finishing the last exam but that didn't seem particularly sociable so I went out for dinner with a friend to Zizzi instead. I've frequented most of the Italian chains (Pizza Express, Prezzo, etc) numerous times however had never been to Zizzi, so it seemed as good as ever a time to try it out! The following day I then headed to another Zizzi with some other friends, because why not. My NUS card gives me 40% off on Mondays and Tuesdays so it seemed worthwhile!

REVIEW - Galaxy Duet Cookies and Cream
After a pretty decent experience with the 'Toffee and Popcorn' Galaxy Duet bar a month or so ago, I've been looking for an excuse to try the other two varieties in the range. Getting through my first (and worst) exam seemed like quite a triumph, so off I popped to Tesco for a celebratory sugar-hit.
I went for the 'Cookies and Cream' variety this time around, but I'll definitely be giving the 'Caramel and Shortcake' one a try at some point as well! Each sounded as good as the other so I spent a fair bit of time dithering between the two.
Incidentally this is described by Galaxy as "milk chocolate with a lightly whipped filling (15%) and cookie pieces (3.2%)." Yum!
