Thursday, October 6, 2005  It's a well-known fact among
travelers that if you go to visit someone, and she has your own
pair of slippers waiting for you upon arrival, then you've come

us was a cheese stew. This was my favorite meal so far. For an
appetizer, Klara gave me fresh bread with two kinds of butter
and globs of a special, orange cheese on top. In the Czech
Republic, you can tell how special a cheese is by how stinky it
is. This cheese had a pungent, addictively good taste. She also
served small potato-balls and tomato-balls, as well as another
salad whose dressing she made with water, vinegar, and SUGAR.

stew made mostly of sweeter cheese with turkey in it. Mmmm!
