Or "Smacznego Jajka" as they say here in Poland. It means "tasty egg" sometimes they'll say "Happy Egg" to...and then of course there's always Wesołych Świąt which means "Happy Easter/Happy Holidays". We love Easter in Poland. Poles take Easter seriously...as it should be. It's a big family holiday...and for this family, it will continue to be even after we move home. Anyway, here's a short clip of a traditional Easter ritual here that occurs on Saturday. Families take their Easter baskets to the church and have them blessed by the priests. The baskets are filled with the things they will be eating for their family breakfast the next morning. Some are symbolic...typically eggs, meat, bread, salt & pepper.
After church today we headed to Wojtek & Aga's for Easter dinner. There were 8 of us...9 counting Dawidek (Dah-vee-dek). Again...I'm smitten with this kid. Here are some clips & pics.
HAPPY EASTER TO YOU ALL! Please take at least a moment to remember the reason for this precious day...I know I take it for granted all too often. Chwała Bogu! He is risen! :)
