Io parlo italiano 50%

I've been learning italian on Duolingo for quite a while now and today I reached a new milestone. Apparently I am now 50% fluent in Italian.

Not that I believe that, of course, but it still feels good :-)

And I'm quite proud of my 142 day streak!

In case you're wondering where I'm getting these deep quotes from - Inspector Morse :-)

Responsibility

A quote from the second Harry Hole novel, Cockroaches:

"You can't run away from responsibility [...] That's how civilisations crumble."

So, so true.

Strawberry chocolate cake

Today a friend of MiniMojcek Nr.2 celebrated his birthday in the kindergarten. However, he only had ice-cream and no cake! MM2 was so disappointed that I just had to bake a cake myself. Just for us.

A strawberry-vanilla-chocolate cake it was.

 
I didn't have the time to make it pretty nor did I have the time to take a proper photo. But the cake was delicious :-)
