As many of you know my husband, Brad and I have been trying to learn Polish from a variety of different sources. We started with apps on our iPad which we still practice with, then started Rosetta Stone, then Berlitz training, and we also ask a lot of questions when we get the chance to speak to a bilingual Polish speaker. We have been mighty proud of ourselves when we have been out in public and we remember to say Dzień dobry, proszę, dziękuję, or do widzenia (i.e. Good Day, please, thank you and goodbye).

A glimpse into baking...
In honor of Burger's birthday, our one and only Polish friend that we have made since moving to Poland, is coming over to celebrate Burger's special day. When I asked her if I was looking in the wrong places for chocolate chips for making cookies, I was slightly afraid I already knew the answer. I was right... no semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips for baking cookies are going to be found in Poland, regardless of where I look. When I mention baking the cookies, Alma's eye's lit up. She said she hasn't had a chocolate chip cookie since she did her undergraduate in the US (can you imagine). Alma asked if I knew how to make the dough and was so impressed when I said yes. Anyone that knows me and my baking skills, knows it is far from impressive, so I was feeling REALLY GOOD about myself at this point lol.
