Falando Portuguese (Estilo Brasileiro)

Jim and Debbie started Portuguese classes today!!  Yes, so that we can converse in this beautiful country.  There's so much to explore, so much to understand, so much to listen to and so much to say!! Our teacher, Eduarda (Duda) at Português Carioca  is fantastic and fun.  She is making us work hard, which is just what we want.  Jim and I were glad to place at the same level- pre-intermediate. Spanish helps a lot!!  (http://www.portuguescarioca.com.br/) 

And for a little reflection, check out this article about living wisely.  It makes you think.   http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/02/education/edlife/how-to-live-wisely.html?WT.mc_id=2015-KWP-AUD_DEV&WT.mc_ev=click&ad-keywords=AUDDEVREMARK&kwp_0=32881&kwp_4=189412&kwp_1=174176  

And a totally unrelated photo of our kitchen, with black beans soaking for tomorrow (feijão preto). Yum!
