Exhibits at the World Fair: Spain, Jamaica, Thailand, Singapore
This week, the Freshmen participated in the World's Fair. Exhibits of many countries from all the continents were represented. While Teran's cloned twin, TeranWorld is criss-crossing European in the weeks and months to come, TeranUSA thought he would do his own world tour here in Lindon, Utah. (You might recall that student host, Kasey electronically sent her Teran half way across the world to meet with his gracious American host to piggy-back around the world. The cloned twin, TeranWorld has departed from Czech and Poland and is now in Berlin, Germany.)

TeranUSA was most impressed with the AWESOME displays by the students, a gathering of the United Nations in this school. Leaving Kasey (who is the project manager for the Danish team, co-ordinating her teammates using livejournal.com, how high-tech!) to manage the Denmark booth with her three dedicated teammates, Teran covered great distances to visit many cities and to taste the local flavors of many lands. Some samples of the colorful displays are Jamaica, Spain, Thailand and Singapore. There is not enough space in this blog to to applaud the creative and innovative presentations that impressed most folks. The fair was fun, interesting and enticing. Kudos to all the students, teachers and helpers for having this educational fair. After all the hard work, everyone was SO ready for the spring break beginning Saturday (yesterday).
The Danish project team includes Ann, Kylee, Katie & Kasey.
Here is a much requested cookie recipe for a taste of Denmark you can sink your teeth in. Enjoy!

Mandelsmorboller (almond butter balls)(very top picture, next to the Lego Viking ship)
- 1 cup soft butter
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1-2 cups flour--sifted
- 1 cup almonds--chopped
- powdered sugar

Cream butter and sugar. Add flavoring and mix well. Stir in flour and fold in the chopped almonds.
Shape in small balls and place on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake in preheated 350degrees oven about 16 minutes. Roll in powdered sugar while still warm.

***The cookies taste better after they have cooled down***
