Travel / Poland wildlife and similar wild life where you live. [246]


I am sorry, I don`t possess my book on beetles any more. During vacation, while perusing the book in the forest, I was attacked by a giant beetle, some unknown species. Them! scared me shitless so I ran away, leaving my book behind.

Sorry.

The situation looked like that.

Travel / Why do you visit Poland? [223]


Hey, nobody has set such rules... I have voted of course. My reasons to visit nothern Poland (I live in the south) are the same as Szymek`s - I can`t wait to see the Polish seaside. I have enough of the mountains.

The first sight of the sea after a long year is breathtaking. It feels like orgasm.
Then it is even better (provided the weather permits):

Slipped into oblivion???


Ok, ok, I think I can accept this slang meaning of kapusta if you insist.... :):):)

But, obviously, it isn`t too popular. Probably only in provincial areas....


Are you sure of it? :):):)

Instead of contradicting, why don`t you admit you are wrong on this? :):):) No Pole here will corroborate your stance...

Food / Do Polish people really love cabbage ?? [78]

:):) I get this attempt of a joke here. Children are found in cabbage which metaphorically means they are found in girls. That`s what you mean?

However, I may assure you that kapusta has never been used as a slang expression for a girl or girlfriend in Poland. Google "kapusta dziewczyna" and you will see zero results.

Sorry, someone has misinformed you.

But cabbage field is literal here. An old superstition, or rather a politically correct reply to the question where children come from, is that they are found by parents in cabbage or are brought by a stork.

So, kapusta still has nothing to do with girls, girlfriends, even in slangish meaning.

Neither have I.

Probably Z darius meant sth else.


Yes, that`s it.


Hmm, are you sure you don`t mistake fried onion for cabbage??????

My telepathic skills told me you wanted to say it....

Yes.
Actually, the one above is the same pizza, before and after baking. It is quite easy because you can buy excellent pizza bases in Polish supermarkets.

Cmon, if they put blue cheese on pizza, what`s wrong with mountain or goat one?

That`s true.
But during summer holidays we travel a lot around Poland and have pizza almost every day. I have not complained so far...

I have never tried it. What does it taste like?

I agree.

Food / Do Polish people really love cabbage ?? [78]

Popular cabbage dishes in Poland are:
1. Bigos (made from sauerkraut and fresh cabbage).
2. Kapuśniak soup
3. Pierogis stuffed with cabbage and mushrooms.
4. Gołąbki rolls
5. Boiled cabbage salad

And my favourite
4. Sauerkraut carrot salad, often served in our school canteen.

If I skipped some dish, correct me.

Food / What is your favorite Polish Vodka? [653]

Once I have enjoyed a visit by a relative of mine. He brought a bottle of Pan Tadeusz vodka. As much as I don`t like vodka (I prefer wine), his was quite agreeable to my taste buds. Strong but with a little sweet flavour.
