2. Put marshmallows and milk in top of double boiler, heat until marshmallows dissolve, stirring occasionally.
3. Cool until mixture begins to thicken.  Fold in whipping cream.
4. Arrange alternate layers of raspberries and marshmallows beginning and ending with berries.

Picture Saturday: Shopping in Budapest

Like most large cities Budapest has a number of places to go shopping.  Here are two of the malls regularly shopping.  By clicking on the links you can see the malls' websites. (There is more information in Hungarian than English.  This is something that makings living in Hungary difficult since I am still learning Hungarian.)

This is my favorite: Allee Bevasarlokozpont.

 

Savoya Park: In here is a gigantic Auchan Hypermarket (aka a department store with the emphasis on food)

Here is a link to a YouTube video featuring Allee.

WIP Wednesday 2: BP Kelenföld

Last week on Wednesday I posted "Hope of Painting Something." Well in the past week I stated acrylic painting.  I painted a few flowers that were disappointments:

I chose to paint the flowers because they were based on the first project from a beginning acrylic book.  I didn't really like doing them, so I decided to paint something I actually wanted to paint: the train station near my flat named Kelenföldi Palyaudvar.  (I have gone to Vienna from here.).

The painting is based on this picture.  I like to think that there is some resemblance between the picture and the painting.

Picture Saturday: The Reformed Church next to the Danube

During our spring break back in April a friend and I took a walking tour from the Budapest edition of Blue Guide.  One of the stops was this beautiful Reformed church that sits a the bank of the Danube river:

The roof of this church was made my the Zsolnay company .  The company also makes beautiful porcelain.

WIP Wednesdays: The hope of painting something

My friend from Kittens with Mittens was giving me some ideas today about what I could put on this blog.  One of her suggestions was Work In Progress Wednesdays, so this is my first WIP Wednesday.  I bought these after a short trip to Wally-Mart.  I am hoping to use them to paint when I am in Hungary.
