Thanksgiving!




Before I start telling you all about the important stuff. I'd like to apologize for my photos. My computer does not let me preview them before I post them. So I cant make my post look all nice and pretty for you all. I dont want you all to think I dont care anymore.

So onto the important stuff. Three months have past way to quickly! I can finaly understand peoploe even when they talk normaly to me instead of really really slowly. Which is awesome.

Now I'm sure you've heard, if you havent then I'm about to tell you. But I made a thanksgiving dinner for my friends and family here in Italy. It went really well! It was the first time I've cooked so I think it was a good thing that no one knew how it was suposed to taste. So that helped.
Every one said that they like everything so I hope they were telling the truth. Any way. I made a turkey. Madda named him William theres a picture of him above. I also made stuffing, mashpotatos, a soup... and sweet potatos with marshmellows. Everyone was looking at the sweetpotatos and me like we were crazy. But they all ate them and loved them so I guess thats a win. I'm glad they all gave thanksgiving a chance. And although making the food was stressful, afterwards was so much fun.
Gravy was also very interesting. But everyone enjoyed it and I had a blast. After the dinner and desert (Apple crisp go Emma!) My host parents had me explain what thanksgiving was and its history.

Any way thanks giving went really good!

Otherwise I dont have much else to report. December is pretty packed though. I get to go the Tuscany this weekend and the Montain after Christmas. I'm really excited!

Ciao!
