Shortly we’ll be going over to my in-laws to celebrate our traditional Wigilia dinner. I made cream of mushroom soup last night to bring over. There’ll be 11 other relatives and it’s potluck. There will be pierogies (I like the sauerkraut best), fried breaded haddock, sweet and sour cabbage, cucumber salad, green beans with mushrooms, beet salad, mashed potatoes with sour cream and parsley, and stewed apricots. Desserts will be an assortment of pies, platzek (coffee cake), chrusciki (a light and airy fried dough sprinkled with powder sugar) which a niece made just hours ago. We’ve been having this same meal on Christmas Eve for over 60 years! Merry Christmas everyone. Cheers! 🥂
