Walking through the vast building, I took photos of some artworks I found particularly interesting that I hadn’t noticed before.

Cooking With Bwog: Basque Cheesecake – Bwog
A Basque cheesecake is a great way to brighten up your day. Not only can a slice of Basque cheesecake bring you happiness, but it’s also relatively easy to make. Just make sure you have access to an oven and a fridge before you embark on this baking adventure. The prep and mixing times usually take me around 30 minutes, and the rest is waiting. The kitchen will fill with an amazing sweet aroma, so you’ll also hopefully get some brownie points from your suitemates.
