Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the palace. Not a creature was stirring, not even a tiger. The pants were hung by the bathroom with care,. In hopes that George Clooney soon would be there. The children were nestled all snug in their beds,. While visions of cats danced in their heads. And then, i...

Basket full of rain. I live in a city nobody can pronounce. So last weekend after our epic hike, Laura, Megan and I thought to ourselves, “How can we possibly improve upon the excellence of this weekend next weekend? 8221; It was a hard question, dear reader. How can you really get much better than a long walk in the sunshine, delicious sandwiches, and milkshakes at Couleur Café? BACON FEST 2011. That’s how. And an incredible cheesecake with a. Speculoos crust, and Deepa brought the drinks. But the walk ...

Basket full of rain. I live in a city nobody can pronounce. Vas in the world ist das? It’s officially Christmas here in Rouen; the streets are decked out in white and blue lights, there’s a marché de Noël in the centre ville and a ferris wheel in front of the Cathedral (which looks terrible during the day, but turns instantly charming when the twinkly lights come on), and today I even went to a Christmas concert in the église Jeanne d’Arc. Other things wrong with this performance included the absurdly lo...

Basket full of rain. I live in a city nobody can pronounce. Tiny Ponies Make Everything Better. It’s been an action-packed three days, let me tell you. 8221; I very happily told him I was going to Paris and skipped off to the acceuil. This might have been a bad thing to do as far as greve-karma goes–you’ll see how it comes back to haunt me later. Or better yet, a gigantic green leaf to hang over my bed as a canopy? The woman informed us that if we walked to Oissel, the next town over, we could probably g...

I know I’m over a month late on this one, but do you want to hear about Croatia or do you want to hear about Croatia? I thought so. Ready, set,. We were extremely excited to say the least, and I’m happy to report that Croatia and surrounding environs were just as, if not more, wonderful than we expected. As soon as the plane landed in Dubrovnik, we almost felt like we were in a different co...

Basket full of rain. I live in a city nobody can pronounce. Republika Hrvatska →. C’est anglais, mais c’est bon! I am sore, exhausted, and I have a sinus headache that’s making me feel like I’m being stabbed in the optic nerve every time I blow my nose or tilt my head slightly off center (which, I’ve come to realize, is a key gesture in my French body language lexicon–I wonder if my colleagues think I have a tic? All that aside, though, I’ve had an excellent weekend. Read at Shakespeare and Co. You are c...

This week I’ve been having my BTS kids create their own companies; it lets them use the super boring technical vocabulary they’ve learned in a fun context.
