Well, I made us a yummy dessert tonight (if I do say so myself!) We had rice pudding. HMMMM! I haven't had it for about 3 years. I haven't made it since moving here as my MIL always had a puzzled look on her face whenever I mentioned it (rice, in a dessert? Huh?) But I decided to make it for my 3 lady students tomorrow night. They are quite a low level but everybody likes talking about food, and they do their best to talk in English whe we talk about food. So at the end of the month, I ask them to bring a recipe to share with everyone. Some of them are beyond their comprehension, so I sometimes bring samples. They've had perogies, pumpkin pie, a variety of cookies, and tomorrow night rice pudding. I hope they like it as much as I do!
I'm quite tired today and my throat is really sore from teaching. I taught around 135 elementary school kids today, all in grade 2. I had 4 consecutive classes. We were doing body parts, so we sang Head & Shoulders, played Simon Says, and then sang a couple more songs that I had taught them last year. It was really fun but my throat is paying for it now. They are pretty funny-every time I talked about singing a song with them, two or three of them would say, "I know this song." or "I've heard this song." and and I'm thinking all of you should know this song, I taught it to all of you last year? I can't believe how well some of them did with Simon Says. I was speaking pretty fast and they managed to keep up. It was great!
Going to turn in early tonight but I'll leave you with this- it explains alot to me about why there are so many weird looking people on tv /in magazines.

Am interested to hear how you go with your rice pudding! Post an update! I tried it years ago but the reaction was one of utter horror - the combination of milk, rice, and sugar was a total no-go (mind you, I served it to men - women tend to be much more open to different foods!)
My mom used to make wonderful old fashioned rice pudding. Mine is never quite like I remember hers.
Recipe? Please?
The trend of plastic people is gross... I think it's interesting to see the actresses etc who are horrified by the airbrushing in magazines. No wonder there are so many eating disorders...
Recipe please!
That sounds like a great idea. How did your students like your perogies?
It's almost unanimous - recipe please?
