Why not? I am here to experience things right?

Turns out crepes are pretty good. On Friday a group of us went to a creperie and had real French crepes. The crepe that I ordered was amazing. It was ham, spinach, cheese, and creme fraiche. The creperie was on Rue Saint Romain that is in the old city that runs along the Cathedral and all of the church buildings. The restaurant is surrounded by cobblestone streets and buildings that were built in the 1600's. It is just a strange to step out of a building and find yourself facing one of the places that Joan of Arc was questioned in (the cathedral). Rouen has beaucoup d'histoire. It is nice to have the opportunity to live here and experience it.
I feel like another theme of my trip is to try and to do things that I would never normally do. Generally these "new experiences" have to do with food. On Saturday night, I had potatoes with some sort of jelly on it (some random and unknown berry). Turns out that jam and potatoes is amazing. Now when we have potatoes without jam I am disappointed. Strange how that works out.
Another fun food experience was the night we had hot dogs. We had gone grocery shopping and she asked me if I like them. Recognizing them to be something familiar I was excited and replied positively. At dinner, we had our first course of salad and then she brought out the hot dogs... and nothing else. I am not sure whether it is something my family does, or whether this is common but I was really confused. I was going to ask for ketchup but then I stopped myself and thought, "no, I am here to learn what the French life is like. If they eat hot dogs plain, I will too."
I have found that the more willing I am to put myself out there and try new things, the more rich my experience here will be. Whether I am playing Wii with my host brother on the weekends or ordering some new dish at a restaurant I am learning. Another thing I am adding to my list is Steak Tartare, aka raw meat.
