Ten things I learned about Christmas and Christmas Eve (since we got that day off, and not the real deal)
1. Boredom can be productive, I started yet another crochet project I will most likely not finish
2. Just because there's Christmasy stuff everywhere doesn't mean that your family and friends will magically appear from across the ocean to drink gluhwein and eat French toast with you.
3. French toast is really good...we ate it with...
a. ahorn syrup and butter
b. nutella and bananas (as IF I wasn't going to have nutella in this list)
c. kaese and speck (cheese and ham)
d. almond butter and cranberries
4. A good friend will cut your hair out of boredom to kill time (thanks Sara!!)
5. Card games are fun if you play them while performing impressions of fellow castmates
6. German is easier to understand in cartoon form on the TV
7. Gluhwein is fine, any time (and super cheap at the grocery store)
8. Adrienne is super awesome for flying in on Christmas morning from Spain.
9. Department store truffles from Breuninger are about the best thing ever to dissolve in one's mouth
10. Skype is a gift from the gods, but I wish there was a tactile option in addition to video...I really want to pet my dog and cat.
Oh yeah, here's my new haircut courtesy of Sara Sparrow, multi-tasking boredom avoiding extraordinaire!!
