Words are a funny thing...especially when in another country. The other day Lucy asked me if I wanted some jelly...I was slightly confused since clearly you don't just serve jelly, so I was expecting jelly on bread which we have as a snack sometimes. Well, as she turned the corner, there was no bread...just a bowl...a bowl full of jello! I love jello so it was a welcomed surprise. So then I explained to her that it's called jello not jelly...I'm just glad it wasn't a bowl full of jelly!
Another word that sometimes I don't know what I'll be getting is cookie. They use the word cookie for, well, cookies and also crackers. So sometimes I get a package of cookies and other times a plate of saltines!
And today for breakfast...a tower of cookies (crackers) with jello (jelly)! :)
Have a bowl of jelly on me Hen~~ JK. Kind of funny how a simple thing like a letter can change the meaning of something immensely!
