Noel :)

Salut,
so Christmas is over, even though it doesn't really feel like that, because there is still a bunch of stuff left to eat :P

Last Weekend I had some really nice 3 days with the lovely People from Basketball. It was a competition of the Teams which are called "les séléctions". These are the Teams, where out of each Region the 12 best Players Play in one Team. It takes place every year and this year it was in the Gymnasium of our Club, so we, as members of the Club, had to do the Service and take care of the music in the breaks and stuff like that :)) But I really had alot of fun, especially for the last match, where "Isere" played against "Haut-Savoir" (my Region)...it was a really nice atmosphere :)

And of cours I want to tell some stuff about Christmas :P
So to make it short, the word Christmas, or better in French Noel, can be translated simply with FOOOOOOOD :P and I am really serious there...Noel is all about eating, eating and eating....ok in the middle of all that, are some presents...but afterwards you eat again :P
Here you can see a bit of what I mean:

This was our nice table decoration of Christmaseve...so the 24th :)
The shoe is made of chocolate...

Some Froggs?
And yes, they eat them for real...and they are really nice :) Tast like chicken :P

 

 

 And maybe also some snales and oysters? :P
I liked the snales, but I have to say, that they actually taste like nothing, it's just the garlic butter :))
An oysters: I can still not get used to them...:P

 

 

 Last but not at all least: The Desserts :P

This one is Special for my Region. It's some Kind of Little cakes filled with Marmelade :)) Sooo good :)

 

Iles flotantes :)) Just awsome These things :)

 

One bûche home made :)) (it's this rolled cake)
This one with alooot of chocolate...

...and this one bought and with fruits :))

But they where both really nice :)

 

So yes, we ate too much...but of course just the best stuff :)
I got some really cute presents and I was soo pleased that my Family apriciated the presents, extra sent from Germany :P

So tomorrow we are heading of to skiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! I am soooo happy...like reaaaally really really happy!
So I will go to bed now, so I am fit for tomorrow :)

xoxo, Klara
