Just a few pictures to show you what to do when your friend got millions of brandy beans at her work as a gift for Christmas… If your friend likes them, then it’s fine, but if your friend doesn’t, you want to give a hand…

First, you want to get rid of the actual flavor: the brandey inside the chocolate. So you cut the beans in order to take the liquid out. Keep the brandey in a glass so that it can be used (for what reason, I don’t know).

Second, you must rinse the empty beans since there is still a lot of sticky brandey inside.

Third, you have to eat the remaining chocolate with peabut butter or soemthing of the kind since the brandey smell and taste is soaked in the chocolate forever. Enjoy!

I know that this post really has nothing to do with what you usually find on this blog, but I think it is a good picture of how the last three weeks of my life have been for me. After spending three and a half months in university and being so serious about life and not really talking to anybody apart for the superficial stuff and the bible study time I had, I spent three weeks doing nothing. I just relaxed, never had anything to do with school, apart for checking my marks on the Internet. I really laughed a lot and said many many funny, cheesy, useless things (never bad). I realized that I since I was so focused on school, studies and getting used to live at my grandparents’ that I never had a chance to simply be crazy a little bit and laugh for real. I didn’t really have the opportunity I guess. These last three weeks were needed and I hope I have a more balanced life this semester.
