Alléluia..I'm Back!

Bonne sabbat et Salut a tous! I know it's been a while. The last time I posted was on Sunday but I discovered that it is easier for me to post at the end of the week so that I can reflect on my week and all the things that I did and didn't do. In addition, it's better for me to post a whole blog filled with the images of our weekly meals. Yum.  Anyway, we just finished our second week of classes and to be honest, it's not as bad as I expected. Classes are divided into three modules, 5 weeks for each module. It is this way because there are students are who are participating in the DTW ( Discover the World) program wherein they travel to three cities: Paris,France  Rome,Italy , and Seville, Spain. So in this module I have only two classes: Metaphysics, which is a module class, and a semester class French Conversation. Although having the class everyday from Lundi a Jeudi (Monday to Thursday) is annoying but Feb 20 is the last day I will have philosophy so I won't have to deal with that class for the rest of the semester. Also, my French class wasn't as bad as I thought and I actually look forward to Monday's and Thursdays [ I only have that class twice a week since it's a semester long class] Oh yeah, 8 Fevrier we are going to Bretagne [Brittany] in France, I can't wait.  If I think of anything else to post, I'll either add it or post another entry. Until then, Don't forget to post a Comment, stay tuned and stay tasty Love you all- Cocabelle.

Here's some pictures of our meals starting From last Friday to this Friday. So remeber we have weekly meals, four nights a week Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

Friday's meal... beef with carrots and potatoes.  Dessert was some type of cream or custard, Delish!  and of course a cheese platter.

Monday: Now Monday's meal was not my favorite meal. Our host family had company over so Leah and I had to eat in the kitchen. For dinner we had what we believe to be pumpkin soup. It was tasty but a little thin so we weren't that full. Also we had what I believed to be either pate or some kind of loaf or mold.  The meat tasted fine but the texture of it I could do without. It had some type of jelly to hold the mold . The jelly reminded me of when you cold chicken or sauce that solidified in the fridge . Nevertheless, it was ok on top of the bread. Dessert was fruit sauce ( it tasted like cassis and strawberry)  and  with a cream side,

Tuesday: Tuesday's meal was better. We had potatoes and beef, again. It was good but I hope she doesn't think Leah and I only eat beef. We told her we don't eat pork. Let's pray we see a little birdie on our plates next week. Nevertheless, this meal was on point, especially the beef that still had a little pulse; just how I like it. We had the same dessert that we had the day before. 

Just a close up of the meat. See how pink it is, and the red on the plate was the blood. OMG so good.

Thursday:  Pot roast ( think) and this ammmazing potato( I know) and broccoli dish with cheese. Now you know the consequences of broccoli and cheese together but I didn't care, it was sooo good. We had mandarins for dessert which were sweet.

Friday:  Friday we had a Lebanese dish which was packed with extreme flavor I think thought it was beef but in fact might have been lamb in the style that we have gyros back at home with white rice, and a fruit topping. I thought it was cranberries but it looked like the inside of a pomegranate. They were sour but it was a great balance with the cucumber sauce we had on the side. I ended up drizzling the sauce over everything. And for dessert.... Crème Brulée !

What a week!
