Special K bars... kind of.

This Saturday, we got the chance to go over to the intermediate class profesora, Ana's house. We wanted to make Special K bars, and she graciously invited us to use her kitchen! In Spain, people don't really (ever) invite other people over to their houses, so it was really nice of her to let us come.

Me, Kayla, and two friends of ours, Bethany and Ellen, tried to find the ingredients we needed at the grocery store to make Special K bars. It wasn't quite as easy as we thought it would be. Corn Syrup, chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips were nowhere to be found. Therefore, we made up our own recipe! It ended up being kind of a combo of rice krispie bars and Special K bars.

Our creation worked beautifully and when the bars were done we sat and enjoyed them with cafe con leche and lots of talking! Spaniards LOVE to talk. I think they live to talk. Anyways, we stayed over at Ana's house for at least three and a half hours, just talking. 

It was so much fun to be able to cook something somewhat familiar, and also to spend time with an extremely sweet Spanish woman.
