So, there's this program at NC State called Breaking Bread. It is facilitated through the Office of International Services, a department created to aid international students during their time at NC State. The Breaking Bread program is designed to give international students the chance to experience a meal inside an American home. Both the international students and the hosts have to apply, and then the school creates the matches! I signed up this summer (as soon as I found out about the program) and was notified today of my two matches!! I am SO excited! What should I make??
My matches are two girls from China. They both like sports--one wants to learn about American football, and the other one wants to learn how to make cookies (the latter is right up my alley!). Seriously, I am really, really excited!!! Hopefully, there will be a game on so we (a.k.a not me--probably Benji or someone who knows a little more about football) can explain a bit to Qiaoyin. I know I have said it twice already, but I am SO excited!
But, really, what should I make? Any suggestions?
Leave me comments!!! I need help!

No suggestions on actual dishes yet, but I'd say you should include a making-chocolate-chip-cookies time in your evening!
ReplyDeleteUmmm, what an AWESOME program!! SO neat!! hmmmm my favorite dishes to make are usually pasta-oriented :) Homemade pizza is good/fun.... We just made a really good braised balsamic chicken dish. There's lots of inspiration on Allrecipes.com :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, guys! I was thinking about it all day! hahah...I think I might make grilled chicken with mashed potatoes and corn on the cob...and salad & bread...and then an apple pie!
ReplyDeleteAnd, I think I'll have stuff to make some chocolate chip cookies if we get time. Wish you guys could come! I'll let you know how it goes :)
