MA!!!! THE MEATLOAF!!!!!
Since it seems like all I talk about on this blog is food, I don’t know why I didn’t name this blog: Teny’s Critique of Food In Prague. I didn’t mean for it to be only about food, so I’m sorry that it seems to be turning out this way! But, I wanted to tell you I made meatloaf today! I’d never tried meatloaf before today, so I’m patting myself on the back...
First Day of Class and Pictures of a Czech Meal!
Today was my first day of school in Prague! I only had one class- History of Czech Architecture. It seems like it’s going to be really interesting. We are only in the classroom three times: for a movie, the midterm, and the final exam. Other than that, we will be touring different historical architectural sites in Prague! Wednesday’s class will be our first tour of the Prague...
Living in Disneyland
Today, Andrea and I were scheduled to go on a tour of Prague’s gorgeous castle at 2pm. We dragged ourselves out of bed at 12:30, ate some breakfast, and for once we had more than enough time to get to the meeting place. However, being fluent in English and not Czech, we got off at the wrong tram stop because we misunderstood what the Czech words meant. The next Tram was 10 minutes late...
Our First Official Weekend in PRAGUE!

I’m more of a seafood kind of girl, but I’m in a landlocked country so there is not much I can do for my fish cravings. Next to fish, I of course LOVE Middle Eastern food. So after trying many different types of Czech food, I...
My Search For Peanut Butter (in a land unfamiliar...
I’m assuming if you are reading this, you know me, which means you know I love peanut butter more than just about anything. My roommates are constantly shocked by how many jars(yes, plural) I plow through a week. When I heard peanut butter is almost impossible to find in Prague, I was in SHOCK! It is my go-to food after EVERY MEAL! No peanut butter for me this whole semester would be the...
First Two Days in Prague
I’m here finally!!! After what seems like the longest day of travel, we got in yesterday morning and it seems like we’ve been going, going, going ever since. So many people told me prior to my visit that Prague is the most beautiful city in all of Europe. While i have only been to a few, I have to say that without a doubt this is the prettiest city I’ve ever been to in my...
