who am I?

I just had a realization. I'm going to a friend's house tonight for a going away party for a friend moving back to London. I was about to ask one of the partygoer's if his female companion would be joining him, to get a rough number for how many cookies would be required. Except that I haven't the stuff to make cookies. I haven't baked in over 6 weeks....probably a couple weeks longer than that. This is weird. I think I'll have to rectify this soon. It is such an odd thing that all my friends here have no real idea that I'm a big baker. I feel like I'm living a double life!

acclimated to Prague

How do you know when you've become acclimated to Prague?

When you can go out to watch American football, drink 2.8 L of beer, and get home, get in bed and pluck your eyebrows like normal. (and then, of course, update the blog!!)

Good grief. Almost 3L of beer.

Bowling in foreign lands


It never really occurred to me before last night...but I think bowling is probably mostly an American past time? Maybe I'm wrong, but last night we decided to go bowling at a bowling alley near my apartment.

We were a little nervous because it was almost 10 p.m. and we were on our way. We had Anja call (she's Czech!) to see if it was possible to reserve a lane, thinking they would be really crowded on a Saturday night. We got there and there was NO ONE there! All eight lanes were dark. They turned one on so that we could bowl. Crazy. Not cheap, but a good time. They could have turned up the rockin' '80's music a bit though!!

Picture of me bowling in an empty bowling alley!
