Sugar Attack = Death
So today my last full day in Brno, Czech Republic, I was out walking around town with my friend Laura. We came across a Cafe that she had been looking for all semester. We perused the menu and decided on some hot chocolate, which in the CZ is hot chocolate pudding. I decided I would be nice to myself and get a "Tasticky s tvarohem, maslem a skorici." In English this would be sweet pies stuffed with fromage frais, topped with butter and cinnamon. Wow, now that sounds delightful, plus we all know i have a HUGE sweet tooth. So the it comes out in this massive bowl containing about 30 of these stuffed pies covered in butter, sugar, and cinnamon. It looks great and the first few bites were wonderful. I got through the first 10 pies with easy, but washing sugar coated cream cheese down with hot chocolate pudding only works for so long. Well after making Laura eat one i dove back in for the second half. With what looked like about 6 left I had more than I could handle. That is when I noticed the Evian ad to my left and ordered one. That helped me choke down the last what turned out to be 8. I have never felt so conquered in my life, at least not by food. I now am in such a state of daze its very strange but maybe this will help me pack finally.
what's in store for the last night in BRNO? . . . A homemade CZECH monopoly then the Belgians are making Belgian Waffles for dinner and then who knows. . .
