      Thank you Joyce for sharing your knowledge about wall cloths. It was great to learn about the tradition and the designs and see the examples.
      I am planning to head up to search the linens and things in my Moms cedar chest and boxes. Im pretty sure there are a few up there. Possibly from both sets of my Great Grandmothers.

        Adam, this was a great demonstration!your apron, and real pup are adorable!
        My iPad kept kicking me off but hopefully with the recipes you sent Liz and your demonstrations I can give it a try. I plan to hit the farm stands tomorrow for peppers. Some horrid creatures ate mine, leaves and all. They were the last of the seeds too, someone had sent me from her peppers from her Uncle from Hungary.
        Thank you again!
        It was fun to watch live, wish we could taste and smell it too.

          What an enjoyable presentation! I actually watched it three times, alone, then with my daughter while we made dinner and again with my Mom as we ate!
          It has such a lovely sound!
          Where can we find one in the USA? We loved the bonus at the end!

          Thank you for sharing

            Thank you for your presentation, I have wondered if obtaining Hungarian Citizenship was a possibility. Your presentation was very informative.

                This was a great presentation! Bonus for the cuteness factor of adorable pups and their adults! I appreciate the knowledge of the Hungarian dog breeds and all the info about the Viszlas. I was impressed by how well behaved the dogs were and how Zsofia can take 14 out at once for a walk, off leash!
                Thanks for all the info and sharing. Congrats to you for all your achievements and the dogs as well.

                  Although I have heard/watched this presentation before, and taken sessions with Reka through the Hungarian Store, I continue to be inspired each time I hear her speak. Over the past year, I have learned so much from her. Reka’s sessions are always very organized and thorough. I greatly appreciate all the work she puts in to help me locate, verify, problem solve etc. as I work on my family story. Her nudges are gentle, her encouragement has been tremendous! I have a ways to go yet, but I no longer feel lost and floundering thanks to The individual attention from her private coaching sessions. I greatly appreciate and am extremely thankful for all her help.

                    I really enjoyed your presentation Let Music Belong to Everyone!

                    Until spring of 2023, I had never heard of Kodaly. Then I started taking classes with Zina. I continue to now hear about him in other areas as well! Recently, I was looking for professional development opportunities to renew my teaching certification and there was a group Michigan Kodaly Educators listed! The Music Crew offered ab2 day virtual conference! Although I don’t formally teach Music Education, how could I not attend? It was free, and I earned 5.5 schechs just for attending.

                    The more I learn about him, the more geeked I become about all he did! I loved how you shared the history and importance of music education! Your presentation was well organized, interesting and informative. Thank you
