We had a little celebration on my last day at school. It was going to be a pot-luck party where we were to bring a dish representative of our own country. As my kitchen wasn’t very well-equipped I brought some profiteroles instead.
At our break at 11am the party started. We put out the food and it turned into a feast. Cristina made guacamole, Violet brought savory egg rolls, Catherine had made scones, Duda did cups of custard pudding, Simon bought some biscuits and Jordan made sticky rice cooked in coconut milk. We all dug in. Everything tasted so good. A few students from another class also came in to join the fun. We chatted and laughed, and everyone was very happy.
That day’s lesson was about Italian food, and it seemed appropriate that we ended it on this note.
When the class was over we said our goodbyes. It had been a fantastic two weeks, attending class, making new friends and learning this beautiful language. There was a measure of sadness on my part, and I wished them all much success and a happy life. Till we meet again…
