The One With Bri's French National Honor Society

 

 

Tonight, we went to DHS for the National Foreign Language Honor Society inductions. Bri was nominated and accepted into Papillon, which is the French chapter of the Honor Society at DHS.

 

What was funny about this is that Bri was actually invited to join last year, but declined, thinking it was extra work. As a result, it was mainly sophomores who were inducted...but there were a handful of juniors as well.

 

It was a quick ceremony - those are always fun - but it marked the first honor society that Bri literally shared with one of her parents. Emmie was inducted into the Spanish version of the society when she was in high school. Very cool!!!

The One With Crepes and Whoopie Pies

 

 

Earlier today, we have a double bonus. No only did we have crepes as a treat, but also whoopie pies.

 

The crepes were courtesy of Bri. She had the opportunity to earn extra credit for a French class and was really, really, really excited to cook them. And, indeed, they were great. Here's hoping she nails that extra credit.

 

Then, later this afternoon, we visited a bakery that we did not know existed nearby. Called the Whoopie Wagon (actually, that may not be its full name, but they have a food wagon that serves whoopies), the bakery was marvelous. You know that you have found a good bakery when you are struck by the scents of confection as soon as you enter, and this one definitely did it. We got some cookies there as well as some whoopie pies to enjoy later.

 

I can't wait
