had to google it to see what it actually is...........

re: international woman's day........

those 'hairdos' on paper have been designed and made by the students at the hairdressing vocational training course in order to commemorate and celebrate women................so much needed nowadays...........

re. mussels at school........

mussels are not an usual snack at school at all............actually they would probably be forbidden by a public health inspector...........

there is an explanation, though..........

the biology teacher bought two mesh bags of mussels so as to carry out a practice at the biology lab.............she did not use one of the bags and asked pilar, the canteen owner, to steam them and serve them with some lemon and ground black pepper.........they were just DELICIOUS and so unexpected...............!!!
