compot

these are cucumbers my neighbor Ivan gave me!

once again it happened  so this is going to be short.  i learned how to make compot today, that is food for winter and now have 5 jars of plums and cucumbers sitting ontop of my fridge.  i'm going to put some pictures in and since i've done this already tonight i can tell you that you'll have to start from the last picture and work up for the process to be in order.  i have neighbors who are going to show me how.  the process today wasn't hard, at least for me it wasn't, so i really can't say i learned.  i also met someone from chicage today.  he was born here but lives there and comes back every summer.  we really did not have much time to talk b/c i was late going na ghosti and had to leave but i'm sure we'll run into each other again and if we don't i'm sure the bulgarian people will make sure we see each other, the 2 Americans...we kinda stand out, it's pretty impossible for us to go unknown.  mom i can already hear you and you can just stop and yes he's young too.  before this gets deleated again i'm going to put some pictures on and post quickly.  oh yeah!  in about 9 more days i'm going to help make honey too!  a man at our school has hives and when he was showing me them i asked if i could help him sometime and he told me i could.  i'm actually kinda excited!
