  • Good Eats!

    I took a tour through the new Torvehallerne in Copenhagen today. It’s a small inside market – two long halls, one with meats, cheese and fish and the other with baked goods, fruits/veggies, desserts and take-away food such as sandwiches and sushi. It feels like a mini version of the market at Granville Island in

  • I know it’s been a bit since I’ve had anything to say, and really… that’s just it. I, for once in my life, don’t have much to say. I flip flop between feeling at ease with my decision – knowing it won’t be easy, but it’s the right thing. And on the other side of

  • Goodnight, Pine Valley.

    I’ve been debating on doing a post about the cancellation of my soap (All My Children) but while I was in town today, my thoughts sort of came together in my head, so why not. * All My Children has been a part of my life for 20+ years. In fact, the only time I

  • Let me start with the following: I do not have a kidney stone. I do not have kidney pain. I am, in no way, reaching out for help with this post (if I thought I had a kidney stone again, I wouldn’t be wasting time posting on my blog – I’d be out in search

  • People (hi mom) have been nagging at me to post photos of my new ‘hood. It’s not much compared to Copenhagen, but it’s got what I need. This is my front door… And this is my other front door. And this is my building. I’m in number 5, so all the way down by the

  • Back to where it started.

    Today I got up and headed to Roskilde for a few hours – check out the ‘hood (everything is good), see if there is anything new (nope) and wander through the cathedral for the eleventy-billionth time (love that place). As a wonderful welcome back to Denmark, it took an extra 30 minutes to get there

  • 1+1 =11

    I was all set to come home and write about all the people I met and what happened at RUC today, but as I just finished registering for classes, I changed my mind. Instead I would like to introduce you to my schedule. Next week I have a four day methodological workshop titled, How to

  • A thunderous welcome.

    I was woken up at 6am to a massive thunder and lightning storm. *This is a pic from the danish news. They key word here, is massive. I rushed around closing the windows that were open since the rain was blowing in sideways and then stood in the hallway to listen. The storm was directly

  • I’ve arrived.

    So let me start off by saying that I arrived in one piece AND I’m already unpacked. And if by unpacked you’re assuming that I just took everything out of my suitcase and put it on the floor, then you’d be correct. If it’s on the floor I’m more motivated to put it away. If
