Mother and grand parents came from Poland and oh the great food. Mom was a great cook and of course did not know how to reduce the recipe for less people. The huge pot of cabbage roles with the rack of ribs on top was great eating.

Mother and grand parents came from Poland and oh the great food. Mom was a great cook and of course did not know how to reduce the recipe for less people. The huge pot of cabbage rolls with the rack of ribs on top was great eating. Cabbage and noodles were another staple in place of potatoes.
Don't even want to go into cookies and other fattening foods as I will gain 10 pounds just thinking about them. Also had to speak Polish in order to talk to my grandmother as she never learned English. There were about 6 or 7 ethnic clubs in the area where I grew up in and as a teenager we always knew someone that was having a wedding at one of the clubs. The gang would always have an inside contact that would supply us with food out the back door and every now and then free beer. The good old days. VG |

Chicago used to be the largest Polish city outside of Poland (maybe it still is?).
When I was going to Univ of Ill at Chicago, we lived in Logan Square which was the center of the Polish neighborhoods. The City of Chicago was extending the "L" (elevated electric trains) from the then end of the line in Logan Square to run to O'Hara airport. When they were testing the new train line there were a few accidents and the papers started calling that line the Polish Cannonball. . |

Grew up in a Polish Neighborhood.
Fondly remember when Ford Motor Co. came out with the Falcon. All the big shots in the Z-N-P and Polish Falcon Clubs had to have one. Shortly, the status symbol in 'da hood was to own a WHITE Ford FALCON. The Church parking lot was a virtual sea of White Ford Falcons. The parishioners would say, "You can have one in any color..as long as it is White." .......and then they laughed... later I learned Henry Ford said the same thing about his Model "T" ...but used.... "as long as it is Black". ( the white Falcon is ON the Polish Flag ) |
...Went to Public School K-thru 3.
"My Mom told me it was the school for the gifted"..(."JA, RIGHT !!!") Fourth Grade I started at the neighborhood Polish Grammer School. Very first day..very first class I looked up above the blackboard...... ........right there in front of my very eyes, a big banner which read... ........."HOW TO POLISH A SENTENCE"... ....I thought OMG, I'm screwed...I don't even know how to speak Polish. .......Thankfully, later that day, a couple of kids said..... ......."No, not to change the sentence into the Polish language.....but to fix it up...kind of like you shine a car...."polish" the sentence." |
. Some of our Polish friends may be interested in....
..... cosmopolitan review News, views, reviews of things Polish. |
The Polish Falcons is still an active organization -- I've been a member for many, many years!

I think the rest of us are retired. But we could help out. p.s. The Villages can have a little "Epcot" section with all the various countries to dine in...........sampling all the ethnic foods.......now there's an idea. |
I loved my grandmother's cruschiki that she made for us for Easter morning.

An International restaurant area is a great idea!
|
Quote:
It probably would draw large crowds who get sick of the "same old same old" restaurant offerings. When our kids were younger into their teenaged years we loved EPCOT'S international restaurants. They had long outgrown the Magic Kingdom. It was fun sampling all the various cousines. WE had some kind of a meal pass where we could eat breakfast at our Disney Hotel but yet eat lunch and supper/dinner at one of those Epcot international restaurants. Did them all.....from the Turkish one to Rome, Italy, Mexico, England, etc. all of them..........too numerous to mention here. At that time, the food was excellent. Do not know if it's still high quality or not. Maybe instead of BROWNWOOD, a square with international restaurants would really be "new and different". |
Quote:
When I found the list of Polish words yesterday, all my husband remembers from his Polish grammar school was the "counting of the numbers".......he also remembered the words "thank you" and "good day".........but nothing else. His parents both could speak Polish as they had to communicate with their own parents (his grandparents) who spoke only Polish....with some "broken English" as they called it. Ditto for my mom with my Ukrainian grandmother........"broken English" or Ukrainain/Polish language. They could also speak Lithuanian which is odd.......and understand Hungarian. Guess from the other immigrants in their neighborhoods.....from the "old country". |
St Stanislaus, Amsterdam, NY
But also lived in Buffalo, the Broadway Market was great for polish food. |
