My Lovely Hausfrau

So a little bit about the woman who we lived with. I think that at first she liked Kelsey more, but that didn't last for long. Honorata is just very particular about her things and I am naturally careful about things like that when I first meet someone. The first time I stay at someone's house, I clean up a lot after myself and usually do more work that in necessary, and as I get to know the person, I stop being so intense. I couldn't ever do that here. I had to be clean to the very end and for that, Honorata liked me better by the end.

She just cooked me dinner and we ate outside (her daughter was there as well and she speaks english thank goodness. So any words I didn't know she helped me figure out). I have been wanting to eat some of her cooking for some time now because it always smells amazing. She is one of those cooks who can just throw things in a pot for a few hours and come out with a lovely soup or just whip up an intricate salad or whatnot. We had some amazing chicken and potatoes and these two food-processor salads (shredded, not pulverized). One was a green salad with i think cabbage and carrots and cucumber and some kind of cheese/mayo-thing. It was basically homemade coleslaw. Then the other was so amazing! It was carrots and apples and cinnamon and a bit of sugar and almonds. Soooo good!!!!

We sat outside for a few hours and chatted and it was so amazing. I got to use my German in a real world situation, even if her daughter did have to translate and help me along. I wish that I had gotten to really be friends with Honorata, but I think Kelsey made that difficult. She tended to shut herself up in her room and Honorata couldn't very well invite me to dinner and not Kelsey, but I don't think she liked Kelsey much by the end.

Anywho, amazing person!
