USA, Canada / Polish Canadians [117]

haha i'm here man! actually it feels like most ukrainians here have polish surnames, and most "average" canadians cant make any distinction between poles and ukrainians! i'm a little ukrainian as well but it seems that polish culture is wayyy overshadowed by all things ukrainian! just because the ukrainian community is much much larger

Food / krusta (chrusta) ?? [7]

hey dudes!! i'm trying to find out about this mysterious dessert that my grandmother makes sometimes. it's deep fried pastry flakes, with powdered sugar on them. tricky to make right as they can burn very easy. she always calls them "krusta", which she said means "nothing". grandma likes to keep secrets so i dont know if this is true :S. help please :P

sorry miranda but all you have to do is check out the census of Winnipeg :P, the number of people who report as polish is much much smaller then the amount of people who report as being ukranian. that is because there was a greater immigration of ukrainians from Galicia at the start of the 1900's. it's not overboard , it's the truth. i wasnt saying that there are more ukrainians in the world, just more in winnipeg then there are poles. :)
