CHINA CHOCOLATE MOOSE

A HANDY, JIM DANDY, CHINESE DRILL.

Because we have no egg beater here in China and Chinese do not have any such contraption in any of their stores, because they do not know what they are in the first place, or what they are used for. So, today, at the tool market we happened upon in our city bus ride, I had an idea..."USE A DRILL". We had an old beater bar. So, Voila, Chocolate syrup and Real Whipped Thick Cream = Drilled Chocolate Moose. YUMMY!



These two English Class students took me to lunch in the College Canteen today, and this is what we had, REAL AUTHENTIC CHINESE FOOD. Yes, with chop sticks. They both attend my class and they are boy friend and girl friend, which means they will be getting married after two or three more years of college. In the meantime, they live together.
These are some of the artistic rocks painted in English Class where they had to choose their favorite letter of the alphabet and the phrase it stands for... (Click on photos to see closeups)
WOW, New haircuts again and a photo with our barber. She does a great job and we are happy with her work, even though sometimes she takes too much off... Be careful saying you do not want it very short, while showing them just a little space between your fingers while loudly emphasizing in English--
just take a little
off the top ... Sometimes that backfires.

We loved the pictures with the drill! How inventive. Who would have thought they wouldn't have egg beaters in China!
