HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY AWESOME BIG SISTER! Today is her birthday and I ordered her some cupcakes that were delivered to her classroom (she's a second grade teacher) by our mother. Thanks again, Mom! Today I had my last Architecture in NY Field Study class and we walked around Rockefeller Center. It was freezing today, so we tried to go inside every building we were able to.
The RCA Building (now GE Building) at Rockefeller Center.
After the tour, I took the subway back to the East Village and did some grocery shopping. At first, I was only going to get ingredients for a salad, so I bought some lettuce, tomato, avocado, and all that other good stuff. Then, I called my parents to wish them a Happy Hannukah and they told me they were making latkes tonight. Usually my whole family will make latkes over Hannukah and wear goggles so that our eyes don't water. We have a great time and when they told me they were making latkes I got jealous. Soooo, I went back to St. Mark's Market and bought myself all the ingredients to make my own latkes. The latkes turned out beautifully and I am now hanging out in my living room, about to watch a movie or another episode of Lost, and then continue to write my art history paper.
The process...peeling the potatoes.
All of the ingredients mixed together.
Browning up/cooking in the oil.
Ready to come out of the pan.
The finished product!
Me enjoying my latkes a little too much. haha
Last year for Hannukah, my whole family and I were in Hawaii. I made a menorah out of mini cups and marshmallows because we forgot to pack one. I was going through Hannukah pictures tonight from my computer and found this one of my Uncle, Mom, and Dad. It is hilarious! I don't know why they did this or what was going on, but I think it is a great picture. (I hope they don't mind me posting this on my blog. haha.) Love you guys!
I'll be home in 11 DAYS!!!
Love and miss you all!
Love Always,
Jess
