So over the last few days I have been quite the busy cooker! Monday night I cooked for a dinner party of 5. My menu included miso soup, sushi, yellow curry chicken, and a fattoush salad! The miso soup was kinda gross (LOL) but everything else was good :) Especially the sushi! I love making sushi!
Here is a pic of my friends.
Here you can see my sushi and German schnitzel.
Last night I made real German schnitzel and Swabian(ish) (that's southern German) potato salad. My potato salad was freakin great, and the schnitzel was awesome! Today I made Chinese fried rice and tomato sauce for tomorrow's baked ziti and egg plant Parmesan. Well, thats dinner... lunch will be authentic Thai Pho soup. It has to cook for like 5 or 6 hours.. so it better be damn delicious. :P
Tomorrow my online class officially starts.. but I haven't received my book in the mail yet!! AAHH!! Even better yet tomorrow is ANOOOTTHHEERRR holiday!! OMG!!
I found an apartment in Berlin! My roommate is a very nice girl! The best part is that I can WALK TO WORK!!! WOOOO!!! Not so great is that I live next to the train tracks!! :( :( Oh well--- I'll wear ear plugs or something. :p
My house is nice and the kitchen is great! Good for cooking! :) Also-- not that expensive! Only 300 euros per month!
Wow, I just re-read what I wrote and I'm kind of exhausted--- thats a lot of exclamation points! Guess I'm just kind of excited to share all the news- I've been a bit behind.
New Year's was great! I had a wonderful time with Matze and his friends in Heidelberg. We drank sekt (sparkling wine), watched some fire works, talked in German and English, and Matze and I danced on the dance floor before arriving back at home around 5am.
Here: Check out this random video I took while in the club.
Excuse the weird drunk German guy... who was that anyway...?
Saturday I have to make muffins for a friend's birthday party. The 'theme' is sports meets glamour... hhmm... Oh sorry, that's British English. See that a lot around these parts.
Officially, I would like to set a 'Finally visit Jen in Europe date' for June of this year. Get urself together people! This may be your last chance for a while! Take advantage of having an awesome travel guide who will take good care of you and also having other people to travel with, which will definitely lower travel costs. If you book your plane tickets now.. you will save some cash!
Having me to help plan your travels is great- because everyone knows the most awesome part of traveling is doing it, and the worst part is planning it! :P

OMG! O! M! G! I LOVE the pics of the food!!! Did you actually make that?! Somehow I want to not believe you cuz it looks so good, but then I know my sister wouldn't fib...why would she have to...she's brilliant at everything. So the end result is...OMG!
Anyway, I am SO glad you're enjoying yourself and experiencing new things STILL...it would be poopy if you started to become jaded and bored with Europe and Germany.
I didn't know that you had found a situation in Berlin. I know you went for an interview, but not that you got the job. Tell me more about it. Kewl on the flat. Any pics forthcoming?
I agree 100% on the trip to visit Jen, but I really don't see how it would be possible for me. You never can tell though, so I'll keep June open just for you!
I love you! Kisses and hugs to Matze! Keep having fun!
