E3 Fridays consist of clubs this go around. One club, the International Food club, has been traveling the world experiencing new continents, cultures and foods. Our first stop was South America and Central America (part of North America).
We learned all about their warm, tropical climate and all about bananas. We tried 3 different kinds. A cavendish, a miniature banana, and red bananas. Two were very delicious and we all found out what it is like to unexpectedly taste a very unripe red banana. The next week we had much better, ripe red bananas as our inflight snack while were flying to Europe.
We landed in Paris, France. We learned all about France's growing climate, what they produce and eat, and a few French words, si vous plais.
We experienced a four course tasting of grapes, croissant with apricot jam, pomme Annette, and finished with a chocolate mousse yogurt.
I love all the students' questions, epiphanies and sheer joy. Last week I loved the question - Was there really moose in the chocolate mousse?
No longer pondering the answer to the mousse question, the kids will be boarding in Paris to fly to...
Stay tuned.
