Fancy dinner

Today I basically helped my grandma prepare a fancy dinner (fondue!) for some guests all day. It was a nice way to spend a Saturday.

(P.S. Mom, you lost your napkin-folding house-elf for the year, Oma was excited about my napkin skillzzzz)

Rainy Weekend

On Saturday I went to blau ring (a girl scout type thing) with Lara and a few other girls. We made "brannte mandelen" which means burnt almonds, which are almonds and caramelized sugar. They're so delicious and take almost 3 hours to make. Yay for cooking stuff!

I also downloaded ios 8 this weekend, and it's really cool. I recommend it to anyone with an Apple device :) the only thing was it took forever to download and then it crashed the first time I tried... Oops.

Sunday it basically just rained all day. It was gorgeous. I spent lots of time doing homework, especially math, because I have a test on Tuesday... And only two more weeks until fall break!

 

Language class day 5

Today we had class in the morning and a short cooking class in the afternoon. In the language part of the class we had to write two short paragraphs about ourselves and about our hometown. The tricky part was doing it in German... I think my teacher liked mine though, so that's good.

In the cooking class we made a traditional Swiss dish that I don't remember the name of... It was made with potatoes, noodles, ham, carmelized onions, and apples with carmelized sugar. It sounded horrible, but it was surprisingly good.

After class, my three friends and I decided to go to a design museum right next to where the school is. It was called the Museum für Gestaltung. It had a video about the particle accelerator in Germany (i think) and my friends and I got all excited because that's close enough to possibly visit, which would be super cool.

Then after dinner, I went over to my cousin's house, and I met three cats along the way. It was adorable.
