surprisingly delicious

I would like everyone to know that French's Alfredo Sauce mix is by far superior to any other Alfredo Sauce mix I've tried while living overseas. It definitely beats out Knorr and McCormick. In fact, it definitely beats out several restaurant Alfredo disasters I've experienced in the past. I'm thinking about starting a specific website devoted to things like food substitution product reviews, bootleg movie tips and websites with cheap overseas shipping. I'll keep you posted.

Christmas in Germany

Choosing a blogable number of pictures from my trip to Germany was the hardest thing I've done in a long time. I had such a blast! It was so providential that I was able to get out of Africa for Christmas and I'm so thankful. First, we got Ryanair tickets for super cheap, then the director of our school said we could stay with her family, then she decided to come with us and give us a (free!) 3-day guided tour of Bavaria. Merry Christmas Angie! These pictures are totally out of order, but here was our itinerary:
