So I accidently went shopping today. Or I may have gone on the internet to search for cheap clothes, wrote down the directions then spent an hour looking for it. Either way, I went shopping. But I managed to spend practically nothing. I was in desperate need of socks (another crucial thing I didn't think to pack) and a jacket. The shops are amazing here though!
(side note: apparently there are like 8 different sizes of socks...I didn't know this and got ones that are too small. Whatever. I am squeezing my feet into those 7.50 euro socks. Also, why are socks so expensive?)
So my host family eats a lot. Full blown meals 4 times a day...maybe the average American eats that, but I definitely don't. I skip breakfast (bad, bad laura, I know..), eat a normal one portion lunch, then whatever for dinner. They comment about it everytime I talk to them. They think the only thing I really like is chocolate. Hah! Apparently I need to cut back on the sweets... and today they found out that I don't like french fries and have never been to Disney World, so they called me "Americana falsa" (fake American).

cindy Did you have lunch today with your new au pair friend? You are not a fake American, you are a poor American that has food texture issues! Big diff. love you!
grandma I have lots of socks I can send you. Just give me your address and they will be in the mail. There are lots of places in America that are worth seeing. Disney World I not so sure about. LOL As for french fries, don't tell the people in Idaho. Potato lovers there.

Dad Sweetheart - better a "fake American" (not that you are) than any Euro trash! sorry, red neck Texan coming out. Love you!!!!
