Travel / Collection of dress codes in Poland - what to wear? [95]

your sunday's best... for sure.. pick a church, any church.. they are all old and cool. :) then the following sunday pick a different one.. you probably ought to start on Wawel and work from there.

2 churches on Rynek are very cool too.. even if you don't go to mass, go and check them out.. the artwork is awe inspiring.

History / 13 of December - the anniversary of MARTIAL LAW in Poland [48]

Vladimir Bukovsky, "Moskiewski Proces: Dysydent w archiwach Kremla"

hmmm. i surely recall russian soldiers in the summer prior all over the rr stations, bus terminals, airports and the like. maybe they had no intent but they were already posturing.

believe you me, i am not a fan of jar by any stretch of imagination.

Food / Polish Potatoes [42]

to make mash potato extra tasty add some real butter not marg.
after they boil drain the water
put back on hot stove (not too hot ) for a 60 secs so the steam comes out of them
add butter and mash !

mmmm Pycha !

yeah, that's what i normally do but restaurants and grandmas must do something besides all that as they mashed taters taste different. still not sure what it is.. maybe buttermilk or something..

Food / What exactly is Polish Bread? [67]

So I think that maybe there isn't a "Polish" bread exactly, but a "Central-East European" bread which is firmly based on rye+yeast manufacture.

rye isn't exclusively polish, true.. but i have never had anything even similar to the "chleb zwykly (ordinary bread)" or wiejski chleb outside of polish circles.

Food / Polish Eating Habits [87]

Poles drink too much of heavy alcohol which definitely does not add to healthy eating habits.

Food / Healthy polish food? [98]

I had an idea though. What if I made some nalesniki (crepes) but with a whole wheat flour instead of white, using light veggie oil. I could stuff it with a bunch of fruits like strawberry, cantaloupe, and banana. That would be a great breakfast dish. Unfortunately, not very polish.

actually it is very polish.

golabki
barszcz
krupnik

actually, i think a lot of the food is pretty healthy.

food has really not that much to do with obestity though.. it is the couch potatoe thing that does one in. calorie intake is much more importnat then fat amounts anyway.

and alright patricja.. i agree with you on something for a change.. lack of carbs leads to malnutrition. we need them more then most peeps think.

and to the vegeterian amongs us: try cauliflour soup or pickle soup.. yum and no dead creatures. :)

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

I would recommend Belvedere

I would have to agree. I gave a bottle to some very close friends at Christmas, and hope to receive an invitation to help them crack it open!

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

I have seen in TV that emigration stoped and some comeback :))) Now we can forget about EU because we have work for Poles here.

some are coming back like my buddy but then he went to S because there is no good jobs in PL. that's from the horse's mouth.

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

he wokrs in construction has a butt load of experienc.. speaks fluent english and still eneded up in N. so, something isn't up and up like you seem to think. and it wasn't really a choice either.. he said he pretty much had to to make a decent living. he has a baby and a wife in PL.

celinska, yes, canada is very clean.. how do they manage? lol.. they just don't throw stuff on the ground like maericans tend to.

Love / Polish Women Versus Your Local Women ? [289]

Polish women have desire to please but some of them lack skills.It is true.I do not know why.

ok, i'll go with that as i realy disagree with your other statements.

Polish women are very goal-minded.

i think this applies to all polish people regardless of gender.

having said that, i think euro women tend to hold better households, are way harder working and aren't as b!tchy (in charge) as their western counterparts.

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

Less ******* in Canada lol my bad .. I mean black people

that has abolutely nothing to do with it.

KY may be dirty more than Indiana in some of the cities , however , they are exempt because they make important beverges there!! Bourbon comes to mind and then of course the best home distilled in the country

seagrams7 is made in indiana.

just because they make the booze doesn't mean it's ok for them to be trashy.

Love / Polish Women Versus Your Local Women ? [289]

No.There is difference.American women are not used to european approach and respond much better.European women are more tricky.

maybe it's you that changes your approach.. i really haven't noticed much of a diffeerence. my experience with non-us women is definitely not what it is with ameicans though.

Americanized Polish women are gold diggers.

i don't think this has anything to do with americanization.
