Ahoj! Here’s a blog about my first attempt of trying Miss Czech Republic’s ‘Babovka’ recipe. Please bear with the delay. I must have been high due to its sweetness. My writing challenge about a traditional dish would end up for nothing if I didn’t at least try any of your recipe entries. Luci’s Czech specialty food caught my attention primarily because I love baking and the ingredients were already available at home. That’s why I decided to bake one for my family last weekend.

It’s really enjoyab

One of the biggest bottlenecks you face as a student is how much you can actually write. That can put a real crick in your plans, particularly if you’re trying to write essays on different subjects at the same time and have other things that you need to do besides.

Fortunately, there are ways to widen that bottleneck. Here we’re going to cover 10 of them so that you’ve got a wide range of choice as to what you’ll do to make yourself more productive.

,
while he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the
party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised, but

The present progressive tense tells us about an action that started in the past and continues to the present.  It refers to an unspecified time between 'before now' and 'now'. The present perfect progressive or the present perfect continuous is the form of the verb that refers to the action that started in the past and continued up until now.

We think the action started in the past and maybe it did not finish at that period of time. So, we are more concerned about the process and the consequence

It was late October. The old oak on the top of the hill started slowly losing its leaves. Winter was around the corner and mother nature was preparing everything for the first freezing days. As many other leaves, I was also thinking about my future and realized that sooner or later my time would come. Sun was getting weaker and weaker day by day and my colour turned into dark yellow. Wind was blowing more intensively and nervousness other leaves spread around was in the air. They felt anxious an

The following letter was written by Richard Dawkins and it´s addressed to his daughter Juliet, who was ten years old at the time.

Dear Juliet,

Now that you are ten, I want to write to you about something that is important to me. Have you ever wondered how we know the things that we know? How do we know, for instance, that the stars, which look like tiny pinpricks in the sky, are really huge balls of fire like the Sun and very far away? And how do we know that the Earth is a smaller ball whirling r

My dear friends! I have promised to start the discussion of your fables and parables, so here I am with all your great stories. You know what to do as it is not the first time we ask you to criticize your stories and choose the best (the “like” list is more preferable as usual). I like all the stories.

We all know that patience is a virtue. Did you also know, however, that it’s very good for you? For example, it leads to better mental health, better relationships with friends and neighbors and helps us achieve our goals – to name but a few. In other words, though it might be a quiet virtue, that doesn’t mean it’s a bad one.

Of course, nowadays patience is in short supply. Many people are rushing from A to B while yelling on their phones at person C. That means we could use a little bit of help

When I joyned here as a member, I was thinking that I found a community where people have the opportunity to exchange experiences, to speak about different habits and traditions.
