Hope everyone has a good, long weekend!

Enjoy the chocolate!

Good to see you here again, Paula ~ I've missed you!

Happy Easter to you and to everyone on the EB .....

for me .... it's not the chocolate, it's the JELLY BEANS that rule the day!!!!!

Hi Lura


Many thanks for popping in and your kind words.

I really appreciate that.

I got a milk chocolate gold bunny & had a dinner party with family on Sunday.

I really enjoyed and it was fun watching my 2-year-old nephew Joey with his new scooter.

We ate a polish meal cooked by my sister-in-law who's from eastern europe accompanied by white wine and rice pudding for dessert.

Btw once again I want to express my sheer delight in seeing you here.


Hugs n Kisses

Hi, Paula! Your Easter sounded great! Funny; I had never given any thought to a Polish Easter menu until just last week, when my chiropractor's wife lamented to me that they'd gone to her husband's mother's home for Easter - she's Polish - and there was not one single green thing to eat! Karen (the wife) is a veggie addict so she was essentially appalled by the meal! Not a green bean or a leaf of lettuce to be found anywhere on the premises!

So my question to you, dear Paula, is: I know you had white stuff to eat on Easter (wine, pudding), but ... anything green on YOUR plate?????

Just really curious about this!!

(lol, yuh, I know - I need to get a life )

Love & Hugs back to you,

Lura

Well my dear friend Lura, that's a great question cuz I can't recall ever seeing greens on my plate from anything cooked by Beata - maybe she hates vegetables but is really good in making carrot soup.

Very similar to my grandma's in the 60s decade.

I am of portuguese origin so I grew up eating plenty leafy green soup and all sorts of fruit and veg.

Foods with garlic and olive oil but of course I do enjoy a macdonalds burger now and again.

The best fish and chips in england are from seaside towns such as blackpool - what do you eat in the monastery? I once saw a documentary about Roman catholic monks in worthy abbey, west Sussex and they seemed well fed - bangers and mash and red wine.
