Today is National Biscuit Day!
To celebrate, here is a brief and partial history of design in England – in biscuit form. 🍪
We begin in Londinium around the turn of the 3rd century AD. These tasty tesserae recreate a mosaic that may have decorated a fancy Roman ‘motel’. (1/12) – at London, England

ALT A square biscuit decorated with tiny squares of royal icing, creating a mosaic effect. In the centre of the design is a four-leaf flower in shades of red, yellow, and cream. Around the edge of the design is an intertwining strand motif, in shades of red, yellow, and grey. The surface of the biscuit is dirty to create the effect of an excavated mosaic.

If you're looking for something to listen to at the beach or on your commute, may I suggest "Hit and Run", Maria Frankland's latest psychological thrillers? I loved reading it and it was an honor when Maria asked me to narrate! #audiobooks #thrillers @audible_com 🧵
