I did it – Megcsináltam
Yes, I completed it! I finished my very first National Blog Post Month challenge, the NaBloPoMo. I made it through thirty straight days of blogging successfully. I showed up every day with a new post, just like I promised at the beginning. It was definitely a good exercise for me. Like daily homework for my students. Even more.
A simple truth – Egy egyszerű igazság
Just a brief reminder that – whether we realize it or not – mathematics is everywhere in our lives. “We all use math every day; to predict weather, to tell time, to handle money. Math is more than formulas or equations; it’s logic, it’s rationality; it’s using your mind to solve the biggest mysteries we know.”
Cauliflower & parmesan soup – Parmezánsajtos karfiolleves
I read in a cookbook recently, that when having guests for dinner – especially if it’s a big party – we should serve soup as the first course. We could make it a day or two earlier and this would cut back on the work on the day of the gathering. In another book the author stated that we shouldn’t be serving soup because that would definitely add to the number of dishes we will need to clean.

Brussels sprouts with white beans and Pecorino – Kelbimbó fehérbabbal és pecorinóval

Thanksgiving recipes – Amerikai hálaadásnapi receptek
Today, I am not posting a recipe that I have tried in my kitchen. Instead – since Thansgiving is upon us very quickly – here are a few recipes, which I collected from some of my favorite food blogs. They might inspire you and you might give some of them a try this year, or maybe later. I know, I definitely will.
Bird by bird – Madaranként
Two-thirds of the challenge I signed up for has been completed! In the midst of all I had to do and chose to do the last twenty days, there were times when I got to thinking – even just for a moment – about many things. What do I want to do in my days? What are my priorities? What personal relationships do I want to work on? How much time I want to devote to different activities, including writing of this blog?
