I'm coming back Fat and Broke

Yesterday after class I took a long nap since i really haven't had a good night of sleep since I arrived in Europe. Of course I was still tired afterward and ended up staying up really late anyway because I had a cooking class and studying to do for my first quiz! The cooking class took 5 hours! it was way to long but the food we made was delicous... I honestly think it was one of my favorite meals so far. We took the class at la scuola di cucina di lella and made pappa col pomodoro, pici all' aglione, gnocchi al gorgonzola, and tiramisu o cenci. The pomodoro (which is a soup of tomatoes and bread essentially) was soooo good, but i was also starving so that might have effected my taste buds ha. The gnocchi was also really good. We had to make the noodles for thePici all'agloine... this is a picture of Mallory and me rolling them out. They are a thicker spaghetti and it is SOOO time consuming. Most people were terrible at it so when we ate them we had some ugly looking noodles. But i guess it all gets mushed up in your mouth anyway :)

Today we had our first quiz. It was a lot easier than I expected which is good because I was too tired to study for very long. After class we went for lunch and I decided I needed something other than pasta cause all these carbs are going to make me obese! Unfortunatly I got chicken that was legitimately soaking in like a centimeter of butter so i doubt it was any healthier. Tonight we have a happy hour with our teachers! Your also allowed to drink wine in class... I wouldn't because i would probably fall asleep but some kids to. Thats soo strange to me.

Anyway, i have to go now Ciao!
