Cold, Cold, Cold


January has been a pretty slow month for us. Over here instead of having a "winter vacation," we are given a "spring vacation." So we are out of school right now and will be for a while. However, no one can convince us that this is spring time. We have not made it over freezing in at least 2 weeks.


It snowed last night. Even though it is cold, it does not snow often. It was really fun watching the locals react to the snow; it is just like in Texas. No one is able to drive very well, but I did see one taxi pulling donuts late last night. We also watched a kid and his dad build a snowman this morning.


We will be going on vacation really soon - someplace warm! We feel strange pulling out our summer clothes to begin packing, but wow we are looking forward to it.


A couple nights ago we made burritos. They were so good. It took us about an hour to prepare the veggies to eat raw, but it was worth it. It was not quite Freebirds but close enough for where we are. L is getting better each week at making tortillas. We are going to try out breakfast burritos tonight.

We would like to give a big "shout out" to Trevor and Andrea. Your last e-mail was really funny!

Please don't forget that our e-mail address is eastasiabrownies@gmail.com. We love to hear from everyone!

LB likes these little orange fried pumpkin patties. They are fried with a slight crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. They come with white sugar dumped on top of them.

Shout-out to Phil and Angela, a.k.a. Philangela.
