Love / Do Polish Women age well? [153]
I think if you post a thread questioning whether women age well or not you're going to outrage...well, women. ;)
I sometimes look at older women (I'll be one soon ;) and compare those who've had major surgery and those who've just left nature to it's own devices. It's all very well looking at celebs who have hit their 40's, 50's, 60's and don't have wrinkles, have no facial sagging, no sagging of their chests but most likely they had a lot of surgery and then that's what we end up comparing our "ordinary" older women to. Plus women age differently due to their genes, their diet and lifestyles etc.

I was supposed to be there twice this year but other circumstances prevented that. :( 2009 should be a better year for travelling to Poland. :D

Seconded. It's an awesome photo. :)
I added another option to the poll for visitors of the country.
Yes SeanBM, you live there. Don't worry, you residents will be included in a poll soon. ;)
From that wonderful photo you posted, I can see why :)

That's great. :) Where are the pictures though? ;)
I found that gołąbki is not that difficult to make, it is just time consuming. Also placki ziemniaczane is pretty easy to make and many kinds of kotlet. :) Keep up the cooking. :)
Hey guys ...for Christmas I made my first batch of Kapusta.
That's great. :) Where are the pictures though? ;)
Now I have to move on to something new for my second dish to make that is Polish.

Not if it was a picture of food - no way! ;)
Most likely it was too big and never appeared. I only ever saw two. Resize it and try again...please! ;)

Travel / Poland wildlife and similar wild life where you live. [240]
That's correct. While they can physically fly other mammals can only launch and glide. They have a scientific name of Chiroptera. Basically instead of forearms/forepaws they have wings. Pipistrelles are the most common here and during the summer (because of location) I see lots in the late evening. :)
Aren't they the only mamal that can fly? others glide but bats fly?.

Life / Calendar of Polish Name Days [36]
There are some threads on Name Days already on PF so you could browse through them.
More popular names appear often on the name day calender. Traditionally your name day is the first one after your birthday. However, you can really choose which one you like. My birthday is in November and my first name day appears in April. Some people celebrate their "Imieniny" some don't.

LOL now that is funny. Quite obviously you do need it because you haven't mastered how to post a link.
Precisely.
I will have a read of it, not that I need it though; considering I am a 3rd year LLB Law student.

I made small golabki last week but didn't take a picture (was in too much of a hurry to eat :) Made a tomato sauce to go with them and they were...lovely... :)
Now I would like to see that in the shops "The Official PolishForums.com Cookbook". Imagine that...

I made kapuśniak the other day. Mmmm....

We should collect recipes and have a cook book printed. All proceeds to go to a needy Polish family.

Variation on a Polish theme, I made potato pancakes today using mashed potato (no flour or eggs just some milk to smooth them out a little). I mixed in garlic powder, herbs and white pepper then made two big ones and fried them up. They were tasty! :) Apologies about the picture size, using new photo-editing program, think I'll change back...sigh.

I like 'al dente' but łazanki squares tend to be a bit mushier, especially when heated up and served with mushroom sauce. Yummy!

Most of that site is still under construction. I'm sure if you ever get it finished it will be a good site.
A bit disappointing that the links lead to 404s. Here was me planning a motorbike tour around Poland too...
