Uh oh, I kind of like my insanity. Maybe I better not spend as much time here.

In my high school back when we all wrote on papyrus they offered four languages to study: Spanish, French, German, Latin. I wish they'd had Italian*, but I ended up taking French.... Totally useless in Las Vegas, mildly useful in Quebec. And when in France I found I got more mileage out of a smile than my parlez abilities.

That being said, I believe if you can order a beer and a burrito how you like it and can ask where the bathroom is in Spanish, you'll survive.

I've been trying to pick up a poco of Spanish here and there as our community is very Hispanic integrated. I found the best immersion way was to go shop at our Hispanic markets even though white-breadedness sticks out like a sore thumb. ("Chica gringa!") What's really funny is that I've had several people come up to me and ask "How do *you* know how to cook that?" followed by "What is your recipe? How do you cook it?" It pays to be a foodie.... And the Hispanic market has beautiful fresh (non-warehoused) produce.

I guess I should put in the learn-a-language CD's when driving and get proficient.


*The only Italian phrase I knew once upon a time was "My chicken is under your table."

Some from the Sunny hatch

Brooder gang

Fingers Malone - this boy loves me - if I stick my hand palm up by him, he jumps right onto my hand. Hard to get mad at him for jumping out of the brooder when he jumps into my hand so quickly

cute!!!

i couldnt wait. im only day five and i just had to try one more time to candle. just once more.


i see them! they are growing!

of course some eggs looked empty, some eggs were really hard to see into for some reason, but some eggs! well! i could see something! I didnt candle all 29 eggs because that would have taken FOREVER, but i candled just enough to see that i did not kill all of my babies

now how do i keep myself from candling EVERYDAY?!?! lol

?Deseo un burrito con pollo, frijoles y queso con crema, y una cerveza, por favor? ?Donde esta el bano? ?Si? Pero no me gusto cerveza.

Ok I cheated. My keyboard won't put the accents and the nyas in without my switching to another program which is a royal pain in the, um..., butt.

That might come in handy here on BYC!

Ok! Puedo hablar español un poco. Pero mi español es malo. Puedo decir... Deseo camarones con ajo o quantos los niños tiene?
Pero es muy difícil con este teclado.

Yo soy del sur de California también. Pero nos mudamos cuando tenía 8 años.
(translation so no one feels left out, but remember my spanish is terrible so I wouldn't quote my spanish word for word unless you don't mind being corrected) Ok! I can speak spanish a little. But my spanish is bad. I can say... I want prawns with garlic or how many children do you have?
But it is hard with this keyboard.
