finally- the holidays are over

and we can relax for a bit. we had the family easter chez-nous this year as it is the only home slightly baby-proofed. so the celebration began with my sister, joshua rosshua, my mom, aunt and cousin coming over on thursday to make eight million pierogies. after four hours the kitchen was covered with flour, but we were finished. we made potato and cheese as well as kapusta. (that's sauerkraut for all of you non-poles). we also served leg of lamb, sliced ham, carrots with dill and a spinach salad. i hope everyone enjoyed it as there was an obscene amount of clean-up to do come monday morning.

btw, the link above is to recipezarr.com, not the original recipe of my authentic polish Babcia. there are many recipes online for various pierogies, including one by emeril lagasse, but would you really trust an italian to make a traditional polish dish? i'm just saying.
