School? Not really...

Hi all!

Okay so I didn't go anywhere this weekend because my parents came to visit me and we hung around Verona, but there will be more on that later. I just wanted to give you a quick update on what I'm learning in school :)

This is a video from the cooking class I am taking, yes it is in this woman's house, and yes, she is speaking Italian, and yes she is cleaning a fresh squid! The part where everyone gasps and then starts laughing is when she explains how you pop the eyeballs out!



After we all got a chance to clean our own squid, we made calamari! yumm! We also made fresh "Vongolo" which in Italian means mussels. These mussels were so fresh that I was standing next to the bowl of ones we hadn't cooked yet, and they popped out of their shell!

I hope you enjoy the movie! I'm also taking a wine tasting class and tomorrow we are going to a vineyard to pick grapes and learn about the process of wine making! Yay!

Miss you!
