Swiecone jajka...

Was walking along Roncesvalles this morning, got a coffee and headed up the street to get my own set of Bananagrams when I serendipitously saw my mom and her friend Janet lined up outside St Casimir's church for the traditional basket blessing; and I went in with them... I remember doing this every Easter with the family; painting eggs in the morning, enduring long lines to buy bread and sausage, then even longer lines to get the basket blessed... Here's a blast from the past.











Off for home now, where (gasp!) there is no internet~!

UroClub..



Funny for so many reasons...

Tomato Soup



So, decided to stay here one more night before heading home tomorrow.. My sisters aren't there yet, and I still needed to make a dish to bring home, which makes sense to do tonight since I got the time. I was going to make a vegetable lasagna, but decided to pull an audible and make some tomato soup for the family instead... I followed this recipe but added a bit more dill... I also added some crackers, cheese, and a small piece of mackerel for a complete European-type Easter meal, which I will apparently be repeating for the next few days...
