English Club

Every Thursday night Jonathan, Andrés, Theresa, and I get together to practice our Spanish and English. We usually alternate weeks, so one week we will speak only English so that Andrés and Jonathan can practice; then the next week we speak Spanish so that Theresa and I can improve. We decided it would be fun to carve a pumpkin, but since pumpkins are really expensive in Costa Rica, we carved an ayote (it´s in the squash family) instead. The core of the ayote was a lot harder than a pumpkin, but the inside was pretty much the same. Afterwards we roasted the seeds and then watched The Office.
