It's Not Svickova

Behold! The mysteriously delicious dish:



This is the first and best of 3 servings of the Czech classic that I had in Prague, with Kim at Kolkovna one afternoon. What makes it so divine? Apparently, a lot of vegetables that go into making the sauce...and end up nowhere near the plate. :)

Back home now, my TV dinner of turkey with mashed potatoes and veggies will have to do, until I can muster the power to cook up a stirfry or something healthy (tomorrow!). My beer is also not the amazing Pilsner Urquell but a refreshing Pyramid Hefe, which I did miss. And thankfully, the Caesar salad I'm eating is actually one, devoid of a strip of bacon, hunk of cucumber, or other curious ingredient found in the various Czech versions.

I miss my Prague life already! I'll continue this blog for a little while by uploading some photo sets from Prague and travels, and then start posting again regularly in my old blog, Another Big Riot. If you want to keep up with me, check there. For a while it may not be as interesting since I'm mostly concerned with finding a job, sunbathing (the weather is glorious in Seattle!) and burlesqueing. That a word?

Here's a word to everyone that made my trip possible, and so fantastic. Thank you to: Mom and supportive family/friends/roomies, Steffen, the Post, Lucie, Pat, Christine, Sarah, Ross, Kim, Stephan, Evan, Min, Melanie, Nush, Sylvie, Andi Neate, Angello and Dino, Steve @ Fringe Fest, Nils and friends, and David in Berlin, Tami and all @ RA, Axel and friends, Alex in Athens, Aimee and Burak, the ladies who brunch, and the produce lady and Odkolek employees who kindly suffered my requests for fruit and baguettes every day. I think that's it! I met waay more people than I expected, and I hope to return the kindness if anyone is ever in Seattle or vicinity. Děkuji vám and much love.
