OREO ENTHUSIASTS UNITE... to eat Waffles





Thursday, at volleyball practice, we played overhead catch with a medicine ball. The first round was called, everyone underestimate how heavy this medicine ball is and get hit in the face. Twice. It was fun, and a lot easier to hit the volleyball after that.

Yesterday, a few of us went to a Waffle restaurant I'd been wanting to try, called Waffles Sur. They have sweet and savory waffles and you can choose your toppings. They also have upbeat music to create a happnin' atmosphere. The two girls I went with wanted dinner, but I wanted desert, but since we were all excited about trying the restaurant, we decided to split all the waffles, so they each put a savory flavor together, and I chose the toppings for the sweet one. We ended up getting one avocado waffle, one with bacon cheese and tomato, and the desert one included peanut butter, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, chocolate shavings, and cinnamon. For the avocado, I was expecting slices,but it was like an avocado cream/paste. Definitely not my favorite, but not awful. Mine was gone in 5 seconds because I'm a flavor genius. I ate the last bite too. No shame. It happened to be happy hour while we were there, so licuados (shake/smoothie) were on sale. We got two and split them. They were Mango, "Red Fruit" which is like berries and Orange Juice. So Good.

Updates:
*Ice Cream stores here are really expensive/upscale and have delivery a lot of times.
*I'm beginning to recognize the benefits of a homestay as far as language practice and food are concerned.
*I have a new outlook on study abroad relationships. Well, not new, but more insight.
*My new familiar obsession will probably be peanut butter.

Stay Tuned,

TB

    1. It seems like it will. Peanut butter isn't popular here/people generally think it's gross from what I've heard so far. When I got that waffle, I was surprised they offered it as an option and it reminded me that peanut butter is delicious with chocolate/bananas. So it's looking good for that. Yay, skype. I am so exhausted/busy. Life is good though. Ttys.

  3. I had some waffles from this place called maxines when i was in Indiana....It was famous for its chicken and waffles but I really just oppose that combination. They had like sweet potato and strawberry flavored waffles and it was weird. I wish I could partake in fancy foods but Im poor....Eat up for me!
