But it all paid off in the end.<br /><br />Uncle Eric - sadly I haven't seen St Nicholas since the last time I posted, but he did leave me some chocolate (as if I needed more) on Dec. 6th. :)<br /><br />Mary and the Mitchells - Thank you! It is really sad and the entire event has been all over the news since it happened. Luckily no one I know (including exchange students living in Liege) was hurt, but it's odd to see something like that happen in a place I've visited several times.Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358211305153427476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638798883042413743.post-3851047142108035072011-12-14T21:10:37.808-05:002011-12-14T21:10:37.808-05:00Hi Olivia,

I can't imagine how hard it was to bake and convert measurements. A lot of my European baking friends say they weigh everything vs. using measuring cups. Your dinner looked delicious! Glad you are enjoying your new host family! ♥SusanThe Painted Cookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05567038032035158580noreply@blogger.com
