Oily Balls Coated in Cocaine in Maastricht

I took a 14 euro and 3:30 hour train up to Maastricht on Thursday and got to spend the weekend with Phil and Uncle Bruce. It was a gloriously relaxing weekend and I was even mildly productive on my English paper that's due on Wednesday.
I got into Maastricht around 5 o'clock on Thursday and was met outside of a Chinese restuarant, Wen Chow, by Phil. A little sketched out to be approached by a tall man smiling at me, I quickly realized it was Philip and he drove me back to the house in Oost-Maarland. I chillaxed for a couple minutes before helping Phil make dinner. Not to boost his overly inflated ego (kidding!), but the risotto and salmon was fantastic. It was awesome to be able to cook and eat homemade food all weekend long. After dinner Phil and I made what we deemed the world's greatest chocolate chip cookies, seriously, no competition. I went to bed feeling stuffed, fat, and exhausted.
We had been planning on going to the Friday market bright and early but Phil didn't wake up until late so we missed it. I got a plot summary nearly done for my English paper, the piano got delivered, went on a walk to a castle down the road and wasted a lot of time on the internet. For dinner on Friday night we went to a Spanish restaurant and shared the best paella that I have ever had. After dinner we came home and made ice cream cookie sandwiches with the leftover cookies, delicious.
On Saturday we went into town and walked around for a while running errands. I think we bought 12 oranges, protein powder, a dutch dessert for Uncle Bruce, and 10 oily balls. Phil danced like a crazy person by the car while we downed oily balls covered in powdered sugar that looked vaguely like cocaine for a late lunch. We stayed in for dinner again and made pasta and chicken, another fantastic meal. We also managed to make another batch of cookies and I fell asleep on the couch in a food coma.
I left around four on Sunday but in the morning, Uncle Bruce made me breakfast and we chatted about his MBA students. I tooled around on the computer some more until Phil drove me to the train station to come home to Lux. It was a very quiet and relaxing weekend and it was very nice to be able to see family while abroad. I didn't get to take that many pictures this weekend, but the ones I have are linked here!
