So our next blog post is supposed to be about going to the market. If nothing else, the markets here are interesting. The first time I went, I was not feeling well and there was just too much going on. People were everywhere and there were so many different food smells mingling that it was not a good place for a sick person. However, I was feeling well enough to try a “bap”. It’s a sausage link sandwich and was veery good and surprisingly spicy. I’ve been told by many people that the English don’t know how to season food but, whoever made these baps, knew what the people wanted. It was so weird because everyone was outside and enjoying the market and I’d never seen anything like that in America. The second time I went to the market, I got a cheeseburger. It doesn’t sound different until they ask if you want salad on it (that’s what they call lettuce). Even though it’s an American dish, it tasted different and fresher. Also, it helped that the guy behind the counter was hitting on me…After we got our food, we decided sweets were next on the list. Two of the group got chocolate cheesecake, one got macaroons (which were to die for), and I…got New York style cheesecake. I know I should’ve been more adventurous but, I don’t like complicated foods, especially desserts. I like my cheesecake plain, just like my ice cream. Terrance didn’t make any appearances at the market but, that was because I didn’t want him to get dirty. After being sick here, I don’t want to take any chances of him getting germ ridden and making the whole group sick…again. My picture is of me taking a bite of my delicious and spicy bap. Also, Terrance found sausage.
