It's been pretty cold and wet around Tours lately. And then on top of that, I hear from mutti that it's 99 degrees in Chicago, with a heat index around 113! I think France could use some of that summer heat!
But besides the weather...yesterday I found out my favorite patisserie will be closed from today until August. I was quite depressed.
BUT THEN!
At the MSU and famille d'accueil party, there were trays and trays and trays of minis of all the patisserie's best treats! I even found the last minis of my favorite croque monsieurs! Madam Norris with the save! So needless to say I ate everything in sight. Even brought some left overs for my roommates. But it was nice to meet some of the other host parents and families and also a nice way to thank them for such wonderful hospitality. Below is my host mom and I and the lil fête.

Only about 9 days left of my study abroad program and I am definitely ready to get back to Chicago. But not before I take a side trip to Toulouse to visit Thomas and his hometown this weekend. Getting very excited for that! I leave on Friday =)
