Wednesday, January 27, 2010. A is for.Artichoke? When I asked Zsofi where she found the word, she said it was in a book she had. I was really impressed by this. Many kids who speak English as their first language would not be able to spell artichoke when they are 8, yet Zsofia could do it. I keep thinking about it, and I am looking forward to see what she can come up with next. Tuesday, January 12, 2010. It has been a long time since I posted anything. I am not really sure why. It started with a rice dis...

Monday, August 31, 2009. I heart my school. School Opening. The usual. There was a ceremony. They handed out presents to the new kids. 2a did a little performance. All in all it was good fun for an hour. 1a, the new kids, all 20 of them, headed to the class and had a short speech from Igazgatobacsi. I headed to the staff room to attempt to work on my schedule, last weeks version no longer worked. Ili was worried about it all, and asked Sanyi that I have fridays off. Yay for me!

Thursday, April 30, 2009. En fogok utaszni Horvátország-ba. Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Zsofia , the cake and the flowers. Blowing out the candles. Tuesday, April 28, 2009. The stupid little thing decided it wanted to fly right at me. It was dark, I was not wearing glasses and therefore I was hit in the eye. It was not a pleasant time. I want to step on everyone I see, but I refrain, because they are not all at fault. I still hate them! A bucket full of them:. Monday, April 27, 2009. I really enjoyed list...

Thursday, May 28, 2009. The time has come. To pilgrimage. It is time for the Csíksomlyói Búcsú. We had a pilgrimage here in September, but I have been told that the one I am going to to nothing like it. I just hope I don't get lost, that would never be good. Luckily, I am going with Ili, Andi and Jamie. See you after Pentecost. Here are some photos I found from the pilgrimage:. Wednesday, May 27, 2009. Old McDonald had a farm. And on that farm he had a rabbit, a rabbit with very long claws. The kids have...

http://blinkmark182.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Lessons in Hungarian cooking. Today I went to visit Ili. The apricots have started ripening and so there was jam to be made. We spent a couple hours making the jam, from de-pitting the apricots all the way to putting it into jars. I even have some to bring home so everyone can try them. Ili also decided it was a good day to start with my lessons in other Hungarian foods. I started by making rántás. This is a main component in many Hungarian dishes, so an essential to learn. I got ...

From Normal to Hungary: January 2009
http://fromnormaltohungary.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
From Normal to Hungary. I live in places of puns. And hate coming up with witty titles. Thursday, January 29, 2009. Turo Teszta, how I long for thee. I know I am getting a little update happy, which generally means one of two things: I have absolutely nothing to do or I am procrastinating on other, much more important things. Usually, you can bank on the second choice. Today, I walked in to one girl straightening her hair. When I told her to unplug it, she offered to do mine. Sad day, indeed. Zsuzsa says...
