amazing! its going to be a really cold weekend. And I have class on Saturday and we are planning to go to Milwaukee Zoo on Sunday, however the weather is still forecast to be freezing cold.

Tea tonight was interesting, they have a wide range of 'bars' here such as taco bar or breakfast bar, that was quite good, omelette cooked to order, another one which i missed for the sake of fish and chips was the pasta bar which was also a cooked to order hot pasta thing, basically you could choose, chicken, shrimp or tofu.
Anyhow, tonights was mashed potato bar, with chilli or cheese or mushroom gravy and chopped onion, grated cheese and sour cream if you wanted. They serve the potato and chilli, cheese or mushroom, and then you can help yourself to the onion cheese and sour cream. Thats what I had with the Mushroom gravy, it was ok but not brilliant. Food is very interesting here, sometimes its good and we are impressed, sometimes we are hideously dissapointed. Every night its anticipation, what will it be? Will it be something new that we haven't heard of, like sloppy joe (mince in sauce almost like bolognaise, but plainer and then they serve it in bread bun, so like wet burger) which was actually quite tasty. Or will it be something that we have heard of and we think we will like, and then be dreadfully dissapointed.
Last night's was steak, and I took a chance and had that, and it was very nice, it was tasty and tender, and it was a little bit pink, but not too much, I quite like steak a little bit pink, not too much but a little is fine.
The other week they did philly cheese steak for the day after the super bowl, and I some how managed to miss that. However, there is a place that sells philly cheese steak in the Southridge Mall, which is a little strange, but somehow, I'll have to try it before I go home.

Have work to finish now. More about the snow soon.
