Original title, ay? So Christmas was pretty blah but that’s ok now. I was pretty Grinch like with the exception of giving one gift. The gift was a set of 100 blocks, Lego-like but way cheaper and bigger, to my host brother of 3 years old. As it turns out, it was a success! I remember I always loved Lego’s growing up and I kinda still love them. It was a success among the 3 year old, the neighbor’s kids, and even the Dad. They are just so addicting and want to build! Haha. So, besides that…nothing much was done on Christmas; ate some Paneton, which is like fruit cake, and oddly, also got a chicken leg at around midnight. Then I went to sleep and got awoken by a phone call from the land of amazing. Thank god for friends( and snacks)!! So yea, lesson of this story: Kids, parents, and EVERYONE love blocks of some sort!
If you are wondering about milk and cereal, well it is pretty much my favorite meal. I was left home alone today with boiled milk and had to make a meal. Luckily, I had been looking forward to this day for a very long time. I had bought cereal (Corn Flakes baby!) the last time I was in my regional capital and had not been able to eat it properly. I was snacking on it but had yet to make my dream come true. It was actually annoying considering how much milk my host family has; we have 2 cows!! Milk straight from the nipple is delicious. Haha. So yea, that was my success story for the week. Now, looking forward to getting through New Year’s day…should be interesting. I won’t jinx it by saying it should be fun but we shall see.
XOXO…Barbarita (that’s what they call me here)
