USA, Canada / Any Polish communities near Memphis,TN [3]

While there are certainly Polish people, businesses and extended families in that area, I know of no "communities" per se, but......

A couple of interesting pops on Google though:

The Polish-American Society of Memphis: pasofmemphis.com/index.php/en/

The Polish-Catholic Mission of Memphis: polishcatholicmission.org/web/documents/20yrs.htm

If you're moving down there I understand getting in touch with like-minded folks and kindred spirits who likely have more things in common but really if you're visiting short-term get the flavor of the city by visiting the Civil Rights Museum, Beale Street, Mud Island and make a point of hitting the Top 5 BBQ joints for the best BBQ in the world.

Whatever your choices, ENJOY Memphis!

UK, Ireland / Finding ingredients for traditional British Xmas dinner in Poland? [21]

My plan is to do a medium-weight turkey (5-6 kilos) for Thanksgiving and the traditional Christmas ham for a few of my American and Polish friends. For thanksgiving, I just began looking at stuffing recipes on Friday. Dinner rolls shouldn't be a problem and I will go with baked apples as my second side. Still thinking about dessert but the visit to Carrefours will tell me whether I can do a pumpkin pie or not.

For Christmas, I'm planning on the traditional ham (but might fall back on turkey) that most Americans do if they keep the customs, along with stuffing, rolls, gravy (brown not giblet) and probably a pecan pie. America is somewhat regional in their eating traditions but it is pretty common to find potatoes which I'll probably mash and maybe some glazed carrots.

I'm more worried about the invitation list than the menu though.
