2013 World Tasting Tea

Troop 116 participated in the region's annual World Tasting Tea event in celebration of Girl Scout's World Thinking Day celebration!  We love this opportunity to learn about other countries...and to taste the goodies they prepare and share!  Our country this year was Brazil.  Very c ool since they'll soon host the World Cup and Summer Olympics!  We won "Best Taste" out of all of the troops who participated for our Chocolate Truffle Brigadeiros.  Girls kept coming back for more and more and more.  Good thing we made nearly 400 of them!

Since Carnival is such a big event in Brazil we ordered eye masks from Oriental Trading and had our visiting "tourists" decorate the masks with jewels, markers, feathers, etc. that we provided.  They LOVED it!
