Looks like what could be a couple of red flowers on the tree?

Feedback / I love this forum - It's so Polish: tolerant, inconsistent, amusing [337]

They are but I don't understand why the whole post can't be blue or green as it was before :(

Looks like yellow pepper or squash.

Jesteś uparty jak osioł. I am not Polish though!!!!!! Nor am I a mind reader :)

Is this something to be planted? Installation is a strange word to use.

Food / Traditional Polish Foods [141]

None. I would do exactly the same but when it comes to a non-Pole like me trying to guess ingredients for recipes, I am going on the fact that sultanas are not mentioned in Polish cuisine. Even if they are big raisins :)

maf suggested raisins in post #75 earlier so I disregarded them and chose sultanas instead.


I can think of dishes with raisins but not sultanas. Usually Xmas or Easter though. Jewish carp/Babka/Kutia/Chalka

Turbot/Plaice/Flounder? Although shape is not exactly the same.

They look like sultanas to me but I can't think of a single Polish dish that uses them. I also thought of prunes but they're much bigger than what's in the dish.

That was the part I thought was so obvious that I presumed the riddle had to be something else.


On one particular day? Weird.

But the number plate isn't shown in the original pic of the van. You only gave the reg number in post #450. If I'd seen the flag sign of course I'd have known it was a Scottish plate.

That's an older model 2012 van and the MA it starts with in the reg corresponds to Manchester/Merseyside.

Yes. No idea about your barrel idiom though.

That's all? I'm surprised you can taste it in a large pot of fruit and water.

Life / The climate for gardening in Poland [340]


No idea. Presumably you can buy the plants but the date has no particular significance I can think of.

How can I tell? There is nothing in that plate to tell it's from Scotland.

@pawian white objects???

I can barely see them but are they pieces of plastic showing the varieties of the particular plant available?

Maluch. Such cute cars :)

Are you talking about the pieces of paper hung up?

I will give this a go. Do you put spices in yours or just for Xmas Kompot?

Life / The climate for gardening in Poland [340]


Some very blurred plants.


Have you seen them eating the plants? I've never actually seen a hare.

How long would this keep in the fridge after making? I've had Kompot before but the smoky tasting one usually served at Xmas.

The picture on the van reminds me a bit of a winged hussar.

Could be the end of the leek lifecycle but they can be produced in response to extreme weather. Cut them off and the leek will keep growing.

You can eat them which I'm sure you've done.
