A Toast for the Host who can Boast the most Posts

I have not been posting much to my blog. This is for three reasons.

1. I have been posting to an additional blog for the past six weeks, My Mother's Remembrance Blog. There are not that many postings from me, but I take alot of time with the translations, the better writers in particular.

2. The process of collecting documents and working with the notary public in Lithuania is grueling. I have to drive to Vilnius for a couple days every other week to keep the process going.

3. I don't have plans to move to Vilnius, but I've been at my job for five years at the end of this school year. For that and other more important reasons, it's time to take a situation analysis of my life and decide whether or not I need a change. Therefore, during my trips to Vilnius, I'm not only taking care of my mother's affairs with the notary, her employer, and the city, and taking care of business for my College, I'm also talking to people I know about employment opportunities in Vilnius.

I wonder if I've ever eaten a turnip before? I feel like I ought to have, since the Lithuanian name for them rings a bell: Ropes!

Mama grew turnips in the garden when you were small, so you have certainly tasted them.

This is my counter:
