Would You Rather: Sweet or Savory?

Kefi can be very loosely defined as the spirit of joy, passion, enthusiasm, high spirits, and all around happiness. It's not something that can be neatly compartmentalized into more acceptable categories of emotion, nor can the limitations of words truly capture its perfect essence. It has to be felt, not learned. During a memorable morning stumbling through the steps involved in traditional Greek dance, I think we all grasped the hang of it. 

Now, it's been widely publicized that I'm a terrible dancer. Two left feet plus general clumsiness does not equal graceful ballerina. Nevertheless, I absolutely love just moving to the beat of the music, and that's what kefi is all about. Our dance workshop instructor even managed to teach us some steps to make it look like we know what we're doing. After a while, though, I have to admit my feet just did whatever they very well pleased, and that was that. Even though we ended up racing to class all sweaty and gross, it was nice to embrace kefi as any good Greek citizen should.

Our happy feet finally found rest at the wonderful crepe place in the Plataea. Unfortunately, while preparing for such a long-overdue trip, we found ourselves in a right dilemma. The menu (which was kind of like a puzzle, you had to correlate the Greek one to the English one via numbers) advertised delicious savory crepes on one side and delicious sweet crepes on the other. You see the problem, here? We couldn't decide if we wanted to make dinner in the dorms and go for dessert, or just go for dinner. So the logical thing to do was to go for both dinner AND dessert. Unfortunately my savory crepe pushed the limit by itself, but I did sample some pretty fantastic sweet crepes.

Omelet, ham, tomato, Gouda cheese, green peppers, and oregano...yum.

We ended the night with a short walk around the neighborhood, followed by some good family time. It was decided that going straight to our computers whenever we get back to the dorms is never very healthy, so we've decided to have roommate family time (plus Ally-Rey and Chase). A great round of would you rather had us all talking up a storm, before inevitably retreating to our respective blogging caves. 

Well, that's that. Now for some homework/reading/finding anything to do besides homework/reading. This is Maddie, signing off!
