Polish Bigos, Hand-Stretched Apple Strudel and Krysia

My daughter, Krysia, loved Poland. 

When I was in High School

I read about a Polish Dr. 

in the Sunday World Herald

Omaha, Nebraska.

I saved his daughter's name

for my future daughter,

Five years later, I gave birth

Dr. French said, "It's a Krysia."

She started this blog for me May 2005.

In her memory

I share her beloved Poland.

Polish Hunter's Stew

When you can cook prunes, mushrooms,

bacon, cabbage and sauerkraut, 

any game, beef, pork, poultry 

and vegetables together 

and cook the stew outside,

you will draw a crowd 

of hungry people!

Count me in!

Hand-stretched Apple Strudel

We grew up in a community

of fabulous East European cooks.
At Fall Festivals and Celebrations

We waited in line for

duck and roast beef dinners
Kolaches, Strudels,
poppyseed filled sweet rolls
and accordion music
