I used the time during my break at school to visit a small tea and spice shop a 10 minute walk from the school. I didn't find everything I wanted, but I did find nutmeg. YAY!
Tomorrow's cultural activity is an international food celebration. The idea is that each participating student will bring a food that they would eat in their own country to share with the group. I considered stopping off for a party box of chicken nuggets and a few orders of fries from McDonalds, but only for a moment.
After class, I finished baking the cookie dough that I made yesterday and refrigerated over night, but those are for us - not to share.
After the cookies, I did some Spanish and made something resembling an apple pie. Of course, the fact that I have no shortening, no rolling pin, and no pie plate meant a bit of creativity, but it smells delicious so I am willing to inflict it on my peers at tomorrow's international food celebration.
