More Czech Products for Free! (Více českých produktů zdarma!)

July 17, 2009

Článek v ČEŠTINĚ dole (Klikněte na “Read the rest …”)

Let’s start the weekend with some fun. As we promised, we have a great prize for CzechFolks.com readers. Everybody living in the USA can participate. You will not only win a wonderful item related to the Czech Republic or Slovakia, but you will also be able to pick a T-shirt of your taste and size.

The sweepstakes are sponsored by ABC Imports – a company that imports great goods mostly from the Czech Republic. What can you find there? Here is a brief list of items that you can find on their website www.abc-imports.com:

Czech Porcelain & Glass: You can find lots of beautiful china sets, including LEANDER “Blue onion” porcelain design or Mary Ann style with different motives. You can also see unique coffee cups and mugs and high enamel glass.

Wall calendars: very important to keep track of Czech or Slovak name days

Folklore dolls: great as a gift or collectible since it will never lose its historic and traditional value

Ceramics: our favorite! Check out their Bohemian “CHOD” pottery and coffee mugs

Books: for children or for all other ages, including cookbooks.

Clothing: Patriotic T-shirts or stylish aprons.

Great gifts: Music CDs, DVDs, Czech table linens, photographic prints, home décor, art nouveau by Alphonse Mucha, Easter eggs, wooden toys and Czech Christmas ornaments.

The winner of this sweepstakes will receive a Leander Bohemian porcelain cup picturing a well known cow Milka. The cup is actually very large - three cups in volume. It is great for a supersized morning coffee to wake you up in the morning. The edge of the cup says: “Modra je Milka, ta nase krava, modra je pry I v Americe trava.” This statement is very hard to translate, but it is quite funny. Is there anybody, who can translate it to English and to make it rhyme? Here is our best try:

One of our cows is blue; her name is Milka.
She is the same color as some grass in America.
 
 
 

 

What is the catch? Nothing, really. Let us know if you would like to be included in the drawing in the form below. There is one question with multiple choices. If you answer wrong, don’t worry, you will still be included in the drawing.

We recommend you subscribe to our email articles (in the second form below), since it is free, no spam guaranteed, and higher chances to be selected. You will also have access to our articles that will help you to learn about the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which prepares you for any questions we may ask you in the future.

Good luck and don’t forget to check out the sponsor’s site for more details about their products.
