Today, I didn't have an exam so I basically didn't wake up until almost 11. After I woke up, my host mom left for work so I just hung around for a bit and then I decided to go to town with Mara. We went grocery shopping. It was funny because we were trying to find ingredients to bake cookies but everything was in finnish and we couldn't even figure out where the flour was. It was complicated.
After that adventure, I came home and made the simplest peanut butter cookies that exist. Peanut butter, sugar and an egg. It was so easy.
But, the recipe was in cups and finnish people dont measure in cups.... soo.... I found a measuring cup in the drawer that had millilitres. then I had to figure out how many mL were in a cup. So I poured that many millilitires of water (i think 236??) into a certain container to try and figure out approximately which container was a cup. Then I filled that container with peanut butter to measure the 1 cup. It was complicated but the cookies taste great.
Thats pretty much all I did today. Outi was working until 6 so Minna and I made dinner together. Its hard to make dinner when the recipe was in Finnish. So Minna pretty much told me what to do and I helped :)
Pretty soon I am going to sauna with candles and a magazine :)
Also, today I found a massive bruise on my leg. I very lightly hit my leg on Arlene's bike last night when I was trying to bike. (That's the 2nd bike I havent gotten along with since I've been here... what the heck) Apparently I am not meant to bike.........
It hurts.. and is like dark purple...
Also the other night, we watched the X Factor USA and I fell in love with this song!
So good.
And this girl sings it way better than the original people. Awesome <3
