Hello! My name is Madison and this blog is about my 10 month excursion to Germany from August 2012 until June 2013. I will be going to Germany through the CBYX Scholarship with help from the organization Ayusa. While in the United States my home-base is Kansas. Well, enough about that... This blog is a journal of my experiences while being a high-school foreign exchange student in Germany.

Some Other Stuff I've Done... Complete with Pictures

So, right after I posted my last post, I remembered things I didn't post but maybe should have.... so...

1. I read in my school mass (I go to a catholic school but we don't wear uniforms)(Or course, they asked me read in English so it wasn't so difficult)
  
   2. I sort of kind of learned to sew using a sewing machine.... but I wasn't very good I don't think.... still.... learning new skills!

3. I baked the cookies that my dad always makes for Christmas in the U.S. .... my host family LOVED it so... I forsee having to send them ingredients next year (and unlike my chocolate chip cookies.... these came out completley the same as they are in the U.S.... I'm not quite sure how I did it.)

4. I realized that I talked about baking German Christmas treats but never showed a pic of them so...
 
 
This is my host family's favorite....it's made with finely chopped nuts and apricot jam and then baked and dipped in chocolate.
 
This is my host family's other favorite... I have no idea what's in it but, I think it's pretty much a waffle cone.... A little thinner and my host family just eats it plain and with nothing else.... I don't really like them... but I don't like waffle cones either so...

 

Okay... so I think that's the end....
I hope this was somewhat enjoyable and informational to you.

Greetings fro Germany,
        Madison Jeannine Wallace
