Today we shopped like locals - and tonight made homemade Empanada's. Thankfully, almost every country has developed a meat filled pastry, otherwise our kids would starve. Argentina is also a pizza-crazed country, except they garnish with a lot of green olives (and anchovies – yum)!
Tomorrow we begin school (a day ahead of D181!). Ben (Mom and Dad too) start reading Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night', and everyone will do math and a little Rosetta Stone (the girls in Spanish and Ben is trying Swedish). Izzy starts 'The Alchemist' and Maddy 'The Book Thief'. Maddy is signed up for a Stanford math course online.
I just hope our kid's test scores don't go down too far this semester! ;D
