Share your story with the class.
Last summer, I stayed with a British host family.
One day, I was really surprised when Jeremy, the son of the family, told me that we would have toad-in-the-hole for dinner. I wasn’t sure whether we were going to eat a real toad in a hole. If so, how terrible! I joined them at dinner time with butterflies in my stomach. To my astonishment, a dish of sausages cooked in Yorkshire pudding (a mix that tastes a bit like pancakes) was served on the table, and it tasted delicious. It turned out that toad-in-the-hole is a typical dish for a British dinner, and there’s no toad!
What an amazing experience! It was interesting to try such yummy food with a strange name.
We may have lots of misadventures in learning English. But if we welcome them, these experiences will turn into adventures. Above all, we will explore the mystery and beauty of English. So, don’t miss the adventures.
