Boldog szuletesnapot!


Trying to figure out Hungarian labels on food at the grocery store

Boldog szuletesnapot! That means 'happy birthday' in Hungarian, and this weekend we celebrated our daughter Kari's birthday. She and her husband Jonathan arrived on Friday and we spent a nice, relaxing weekend with them. This next week we'll be spending time with them, working at the Eden House, making a big pot of goulash for a special guest and guests at the Eden House, wrapping up the budget for next year and hopefully finishing a puzzle!


It's a good thing they have these handy informational signs to explain everything you need to know!


Fortunately, there is often at least a little English to be found. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean it makes sense. Take for example the 'Catch me if you can' sticker on the front of this truck.

It's the 'szuletesnapot' girl enjoying her cake!


Putting together a puzzle after Kari's birthday cake - gotta' work off those calories!


We saw this car on a walk and thought of Chris. Can you guess what kind it is?


Why, a wartburg, of course!

Happy (belated) birthday, Kari.. I won't even attempt to type it in Hungarian! Why, you're still young enough to put ALL the candles on the cake, lucky girl! (and your mom's yummy carrot cake, at that!).
Hugs to all...
