Recipe: the coffee ice cream

Finally here is the recipe of my coffee ice cream (2 posts before this...). The original recipe was taken from Elise, we changed only small things... But I have to write it in Hungarian as the original version can be read by the English speakers....

Kávéfagyi (az eredeti Elisénél, ez a miénk kis változtatásokkal):
1. Másfél bögre tejbe beletettem fél bögre fruktózt (megjegyzem, ez is nagyon sok, csak negyed bögrényit tennék, ha most csinálnám), egy csipet sót, fél bögre tejszínt és másfél bögre egész kávészemet. Én kubai kávét használtam. Igen, jól látjátok, egész kávészemeket, és itt kell megjegyeznem, hogy csak óvatosan, mert 1. az íze igen kávés lesz (nekem ez csupa pluszpont) 2. a koffein is átszivárog a fagyiba, nem is kevés, úgyhogy jól meg kell gondolni ki, mikor és mennyit...
Ezt az egészet melegíteni valami lábosféleségben, csak gőzölgésig, nem kell főzni!!!! Befedve hűlni hagyni kb. 1 órán át.

2. A maradék 1 bögre tejszínt jégágyra tettem (sok jeget egy küblibe és arra rá a másik fémküblit, amiben a tejszín van.... így kellemesen hűl a drága...), és már ekkor odakészítettem egy szűrőt (merthogy ezt mondta a recept...)

3. Újra felmelegítettem a kávészemes kotyvalékot (még mindig nem kell forralni!) Közben, hogy ne unatkozzam egy újabb pitliben felvertem az 5 tojássárgáját. Ráöntöttem a kávészemes kotyvalékot (itt erősen kell figyelni, hogy fokozatosan öntsem és ne főjenek meg a tojások, az nem igazán lenne sikeres fagyikészítésnek nevezheő ha kávés rántotta alakulna a tálban...) és összekevergettem. Ja, és vissza a lábosba!

4. Közepes hőmérsékleten kevergetve főztem kb. 10 percig, amíg besűrűsödött.

5. A besűrűsödött fagyikezdeményt a szűrőn át beleöntöttem a jégágyon pihengető tejszínbe, jól odanyomogatva a kávészemeket a szűrőhőz (na nem azért, hogy kilyukasszam a szűrőt), hogy minél több íz menjen a fagyimba. A kávészemek ideje lejárt, mehetnek a kukába (persze én megpróbáltam elrágcsálni, mert alapvetően szeretem a kávészemeket rágcsálni, de borzalmas lett, nemcsak az íze főtt bele a fagyiba, de az állaga is kimondottan gumis lett... nem ajánlom senkinek). Mehet a fagyiba a vanilia (én vanilia pasztát használtam 2 késhegynyit, de a vanilia rúd bele gondolom pont ugyanilyen jó...) és a negyed teáskanálnyi őrölt kávé (én mozsárban törtem, így aztán hosszan tartó mennyei illat lengte be a lakást jó darabig...).

6. És ezután ment az egész a fagyigépbe, mi pedig szájtátva bámultuk, mi fog történni... Alig tudtuk kivárni, míg végzett, és aztán nagyon gyors kanalazással elpusztítottuk az egészet....
Na jó, nem egy gyors recept és sokat is kellett mosogatni, de NAGYON FINOM volt!

Jó bíbelődést és jó étvágyat!
Van valakinek jó fagyireceptje????

Treasure

I finally left school on time this week so I could go to that little 'shop' what Pjulcsy mentioned before. I know there were some more cheap things before but I am very happy with those many-many zips and thread. I can greet summer with sewing now!
Thank you very much Pjulcsy!

Finally it IS summer for me....

The last 2 weeks were still aaaawfully busy but now I am here... Hopefully I can stay and write again....

The recepies are coming I promise.... (I have to frustrate my B to think about that as we didn't wirte down the recepies...... sigh.....)

But this post is about my last real school day. On Saturday we had a big day... I gave the very first certificates to my Class (end of the 1st year to know).... And I had to say goodbye to my Class 8 group...
I got lots of presents from the students but this year they were very creative.... and they found very funny presents which I loved so much and I laughed a lot....

I have to show you the pictures with some explanations... I am usually embarrassed when I got presents... It is my job to teach so presents are a bit.... not expected.... I am happy to get pictures and drawings, little handmade things, but.... OK I do not want you to misunderstand me, being embarrassed is the good word for what I usually feel....and I would be totally happy with handmade or without presents.....

BUT this year they were so kind to think about things I which are in real connection with me... Let me show them to you.

I am usually an 'easy person', you buy or make something orange and I am totally happy... And most of my students know about my 'orange mania', the ones who listen....
So I got orange flowers... and flowers in orange pot.... :)

I wanted to take a pic about all the pictures but there were too many, I couldn't. I got a really nice 'garden bouquet' as well. So here are the variations for orange flowers :D

My class bought me a huge orchid (and it was stormy wind outside so I worried about taking it home but my colleague took me home by her car instead of trying the bus...) It is beautiful I hope I will not kill it.... I am not a big gardener, but maybe I can manage (my B immediately said he could take care on it on his work desk.... maybe he'll get it...I am not sure...)

And now the funnies are coming:

A mini basketball, orange and basketball :D... 2 in 1, it will be very useful in 'gólyatábor' (camp in August for the new students which I organize) at lake Balaton.... the other one is a bottle of perfume....it is called Halloween, and yes, my students now how much I like Halloween, that is my favourite festival...

This is a sign to my desk. I got it from a boy who I sent to find things on my desk several times during the school year (when I was in a hurry and forgot half of my things in the teachers' room.... khm... yes, I know.... I am not that perfect teacher type....) Is says: Everything is on its place on this desk. If you touch anything you are in danger.... (Did I mention my desk is awfully untidy, full of books, papers, flashcards, puppets, and objects for the theatre groups like elf wings, treasure box, necklaces etc....?)

I got 2 books (they remembered how much I love books..) a Wodehouse one and one about Irish pubs (I told them I do not drink alcohol, now I can read about it! :D). The card next to a book was written by a parent of the child (I always said 'wow, what a nice sign!' when I saw the parent's sign on the girl's tests...) which gives more heart for the present.... Ah, and the pen... I love calligraphy and on the last lesson we talked about art pens with a girl who is an art competition winner artist in the group.


And from a boy who I teach 7 years ago but unfortunately (for me) he will go to high school after a successful entrance exam.... the squirrel jam!!!!! (and he is in another group... not the one was mentioned in the previous post....:) )
I was very sad to say goodbye for these humorous students but they made me laugh on our last day.... I hope their lives will be full of laughter later as well!

SUMMER HOLIDAY, YAY!

Hello, I am back again after this amazing spring time.... Luckily I survived.... I had a main role in our school play with 2 successful performances then the very first performance of my new high school drama group, Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's dream. The students were amazing!

In the mean time I had my birthday, but I did not have time to enjoy that as I was too busy with theatre. I had my best week ever (my bday week) with 5 theatre nights in 7 days.... Yay that was the thing what worth living for....

Here are some of my memories of this time....

For my birthday I got an ice cream maker from my B, so we had to try recepies...
The first one was coffee ice cream...yummmmmmm
And here are the coffee beans boiling in some milk......Aren't they beautiful?


And then we made strawberry ice cream...... (It is the first step not the ice cream...)

And I had my last lesson with my old Class 8 group (we have been together for 6 years), so I made them some goodbye presents.... It is a long story, you know when you spend a lot of time with someone you have something like a language among yourselves... We had our same funny words and sentences of course.... One of these words was squirrel (actually 'squirreljam' of a Hungarian theatre play...a funny one of course which I played when I was young....), so I made them some squirrels which they loved.... Actually it is totally my design and not a very realistic one but they loved them.... I used plasticin for them (just like in the previous post). My first plan was sewing but I had only a Tilda designed pattern which seemed quite complicated and I had not too much time to make 17 of it.... Here is one of them:
