Elianna's Roasted Butterflies
Elianna had a writing assignment for her Hebrew class over the weekend. She produced a beautiful booklet detailing activities she loves (some of them hypothetical). She tried to write that she loves to dress in flower-girl costumes and take pictures of butterflies... but she left out a couple letters, and got a couple other letters slightly wrong. It came out as, I worship cows and roast butterflies. (As an example, the hebrew word for flower, פרח, very closely resembles -- to a native English speaker, anyway -- the word for cow, פרה). I try to avoid helping with the homework, but I made a bit of an exception this time. To the left is the back cover of the finished product; the silver glitter paper having defeated the scanner, it looks almost blue here. I haven't determined when we might have the butterfly roast.
