Some of our graduate students took us out to a goose-soup dinner this week:
One of the “special” parts of this meal is to eat the goose head:
Even though Susan looks hesitant, she joined in once she got a figured out where to start:
The food is always a bit more familiar at home. Here are some students about to enjoy homemade cookies and cake at our apartment:
We finally got living room furniture for our new apartment (hurray!) and had some students over to play games. Here we are playing “Qwirkle” (thanks Dixie!):
It is the end of the school semester for my senior class students. We will miss these kids:
In preparation for our year-end auction, we took some of the kids shopping to help us identify things that Chinese students enjoy, like these hand muffs:
The auction is a fun way to end the year, allowing students to practice business principles while spending “small money” that they earn for class participation:

As parting gifts, these girls were sweet to give us two plants for our new apartment:
Mom looks exactly like the other 2 girls in the hand warmer picture. Haha, and I like the gloves you wear when you eat. We need those for eating bbq 😉
The gloves are helpful to keep you from getting goose guts on your hands.
Yes, easy to see why Susan’s hair color and size sure helps her fit-in over there. Not coincidence as we know. 🙂 Goose head—–wow.
