speise

on friday, we had a real german breakfast, with brötchen, a lazy susan full of stuff to put on them, a post of tea, and ruth and tobi and i all sitting down together. then we realized it was a noon and we needed to shop before the party! i realized shops close at one today, holiday tomorrow, sunday the next day, and monday early i leave. i must buy everything in the next hour! not that i have much space left in 30 min. i'd spent my last 25 euro on a backpack full of tampons and chocolate. forgot the kircherbsen for the hommus, so went back out- kinda a big deal from the 3. stock (4th floor) but for 50¢ a can, hommus is a great party food. (they are "church peas" in german.) we cooked (cupcakes and tiramasu) cleaned (vaccuum, trash, bathroom) and are now sitting down to work. ruth on her thesis, tobi trying to download mp3s leagally, and me writing this. but i'll have to stop now- at least until i've lived more life!
