http://thesouthernleap.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Tales of a wild journey from Minneapolis to La Ceiba, Honduras. Sunday, February 04, 2007. Do you like Hondurans? Why do Honduran people ask me this? As if Honduran people were all the same such that I could actually answer? Or, as if I could say anything other than "of course! Considering the fact that it's a Honduran ASKING the question? I don't get it. And yet I get these questions. Because she gave me a knowing grin. Perhaps she was from El Porvenir or something. Posted by Bound for Ceiba @ 12:17 PM.

Tokaido Notebook: August 2008
http://tokaidonotebook.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Life on the Road. Sunday, August 31, 2008. Iced coffee is something I came to much later in life. In Vietnam, you need it to get through the day. The heat saps the energy right out of you. The only way to deal with it is with long naps and the rocket fuel locals call coffee. Want to try some? Toss it back in a few gulps, and be prepared to knock several items off your to-do list. Sunday, August 24, 2008. Best Spring Rolls Ever. It's a bold claim, I know. Now, when you think of spring rolls, your mind mig...

Tokaido Notebook: March 2008
http://tokaidonotebook.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Life on the Road. Tuesday, March 25, 2008. My rice isn't confused, it's just mixed up. Is a dish I fell in love with in when I was living in Korea. Beloved of schoolchildren and English teachers across the country, it's a one-bowl dish of rice topped with various vegetables, beef, gochujang, and a fried egg. It can be served in a stainless steel bowl or a stone crock that's been heated on a burner - in which case it's called dolsot bibimbap. And several side dishes ( panchan. Enoki mushrooms, and bean sp...

Tokaido Notebook: Morning Markets: Takayama
http://tokaidonotebook.blogspot.com/2008/09/morning-markets-takayama.html
Life on the Road. Wednesday, September 24, 2008. I have a full report on all the beef we ate there over on eGullet, but I wanted to talk about the gorgeous produce I saw in the morning markets. I go on a lot about the produce we pick up cheaply at Ofuna market. But what I get there is nothing on the gorgeous fruits, vegetables, and flowers I saw here in the mountains. There are two morning markets: one in front of the jinya. Dango are another local specialty - balls of sticky rice, called mochi. I got th...

La vida es bella . I do not want to get to the end of my life and find that I just lived the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well. Wednesday, August 08, 2007. So, I did eventually make it back to Honduras after my week in the States. Kate and I ended up going to the beach in Ocean City for a few days which was very nice. And off we went. That is enough for today, but I promise to talk about my Belize trip soon. It was Unbelizeable! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I believe in pink. ...

La vida es bella . I do not want to get to the end of my life and find that I just lived the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well. Thursday, June 14, 2007. The rectora said to me the other day, ¨By law, I am required to give you 2 months of vacation.¨. I love being a teacher. 1 Whining 6 year olds. 2 Getting little Alejandra to eat her breakfast and lunch. She doesn´t want to eat, because she thinks she´s fat. (She´s 6! I think you get the picture. However, this makes it look li...
