2009-01-04 Pieces of the Past: Small Syrian community found home in Lansing The Ithaca Journal

Flora, then 15 years old, sailed with the Moses family to the United States, throwing up, as her daughters recall, during the 23 days on the boat. She married Abraham and moved into a house owned by the Salt Company overlooking Myers Point. Her daughters remember that each morning their mother would open the door of the house and offer her prayers of blessing. Gradually, the hill filled with other immigrant families; seven of them were of Syrian descent, others were Hungarian, Czech or English.

2008-12-29 In Danger

Many years ago, I picked up a novel, written by another Hungarian Holocaust survivor. She had written of the years she spent trying to save Polish Jews, even as her parents protested her involvement with the rescue work. Most telling was her description of what happened during her engagement. Her mother was busy with her trousseau, and this amazing young lady asked her mother to forgo the luxuries and use the money to buy food to throw over to Polish Jews who were interred in camps. Her parents response -- "Your life comes first. " -- overruled her intentions.

2008-12-27 A treat for GIs -

Just a few days before Christmas, I received a plain brown box in the mail. I took it to a small portable building that we called our headquarters. When I opened it, I couldnt believe my eyes. Inside was a large homemade apple strudel. It had been in the mail for two weeks, and it still looked like it had just come out of the oven. It had been made by an elderly Hungarian woman who lived next-door to me when I was growing up. What a treat for someone used to GI food.

It was 1975. I was in command of 100 combat engineers on a desolate air base on the west coast of South Korea. It was cold and snowing. The icy wind never stopped blowing from across the Yellow Sea. To say it was miserable would be an understatement. In addition, it was my third Christmas in a row overseas. - Christmas 0812250008 news letters to the editor

2008-12-25 Other peoples traditions

Well, I probably wont be awake at midnight this Christmas Eve, but I will be having some of our simple traditional family foods, nothing exotic, nothing symbolic, just probably some of our slightly Irish wacky and usually off-color sense of humor that makes my step-dad cringe but secretly smile, lots of laughter and love. Its fine with me if thats what I get to pass down to Avalon. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all of my readers out there and have fun with all of your own traditions tonight and this holiday week. Its been a great year of food and fun.

Q. : I was recently making chicken paprikash. I poured the paprika in and soon noticed particles floating on the broth. It took a few minutes for me to take the top off the can of Hungarian paprika. You guessed it: bugs. The same week a friend told me he was topping off an entree with dill weed. Bugs.

2008-12-20 Erasmus testimony: a Greek student in Budapest - the European magazine Cafebabel

Its a good idea to finish your studies by doing a semester abroad as an Erasmus student. I really wanted to compare Athens with another big capital and get used to a different lifestyle rhythm. Budapest is one of the most beautiful and historic capitals of Europe. I was interested in hearing one of the most difficult languages in the world, and in feeling the bond between my country and Hungary. Many Greek immigrants have left their cultural fingerprints here. Almost every Hungarian I meet knows a simple Greek word (like kalimera, which means good morning) or some events in our history. They all have an ideal image of sun, sea, nice people and delicious food; they all enthuse about Greece, even if they have not been there before.
