Next to Last Weekend! More Baking, Too

Friday

I went to Developmental Disorders even though it was an optional class. Luckily I did, because there were a lot of cookies and fruit there for us! It was also helpful to talk to the teacher and other students about the case study so hopefully this one will be better than the last.

Then I waited for Taylor to be done with class in this lounge, where many people were sleeping, so I took a picture and was caught!

Taylor had a list of second-hand shops for us to visit, so we embarked on our adventure!

It was hailing a lot, though.

Taylor got hit in the eye by a piece of hail!

We went to a couple shops on Studiestræde, first. The second-hand stuff here is still pretty expensive, though.

Then we went to Strøget and found a big trinket-y shop that was kind of like Tiger. There was a long escalator to go up to the second floor, and stairs to go down, but there was a slide at the exit for kids!

Then Taylor and I tried to find the Christmas market inside Christiania, but we couldn't find it and the weather was terrible! We bought some cookies for our trouble and left.

Then we went to The Greasy Spoon and were able to order breakfast food and milkshakes!

I got American pancakes and an open-faced fried egg sandwich with onions, bacon, tomato, and cheese.

Then we went to Tivoli for some gløgg. We also got some æbleskiver, haha. The gløgg was made with white wine here, and it was different but just as good if not better than the red wine one!

Then we went to the Living Room and got some signature drink called the pink lemonade or something. And then we were tired and went home, haha.

Saturday

I mostly did homework and watch TV all day, but around 7pm, Josie's host mom, Charlotte, picked me up and I went over to Josie's to bake!

We had a yummy rice and chicken dish for dinner, but Josie felt sick and couldn't eat and went to lie down.

Her host dad, Kim, and I started to make the dough for kanelsnegle (cinnamon rolls) which was difficult because you just roll margarine into the dough, fold it into thirds, refrigerate it for a while, roll it, fold it, refrigerate it, etc. Josie came to watch.

When that was done, we spread warm butter over the dough and sprinkled cinnamon and sugar over the whole thing.

Then we rolled it up and sliced it. We squished the rolls onto baking paper and froze all but three, which we were going to eat right away, because they taste better if you bake them fresh!

Then Josie's host sister, Cecelie, showed us how to make these hearts and stars from folding and weaving paper!

We also made a chocolate cake that's named after the trivet in Danish (next to it in the picture) because it's brown and round and flat, haha.

It tasted like brownies. 

We tried to watch a movie before bed, the sequel to the weird Arthur movie we watched the last time I was there, but I fell asleep almost immediately. Josie watched the whole thing without me!

Sunday

I slept over and had homemade bread and jam for breakfast, and Cecelie and Kim were making a different kind of cinnamon roll so I had one of those, too.

Josie and I worked on a little homework revision together, and Charlotte drove me home around 1:30pm.

When I got home, I baked two of the kanelsnegle Kim gave me to take home and I ate them both!

Then I did my laundry!

Bjarne and Linda went to Linda's sister, Mette's, for dinner and I wasn't very hungry so I had some brownie cake for dinner along with an orange.

I have a final for Human Health and Disease tomorrow...I haven't been studying for that all weekend but I've been doing all my other homework. We'll see how that goes! I'm studying with some people from class two hours before the exam so hopefully that helps!
