Had a lovely Wigilia at my Polish mother in law’s earlier. It was still great despite there being just 3 of us this year. We’ll be eating cold fish for days to come. Have a great Xmas all and thanks for all the advice I’ve picked up this year.

Have a good one, everyone on this nicely crisp morning️️

Oh well....

A toast for the start of a meal ~Robert Burns

Some hae meat, and canna eat,
And some wad eat that want it;
But we hae meat, and we can eat -
And sae the Lord be thankit.

Merry Christmas all.

I look forward to a better 2022. Being a pessimist, I have already written of 2021 so can only be pleasantly surprised...

PS: what's a Wigilia, Stephen?

PS: what's a Wigilia, Stephen?

Wigilia is the traditional Polish Christmas Eve supper. When I was a child we had Borscht and mushroom filled pierogi (dumplings) and different kinds of fish. My mother used to be up all the previous night making poppy seed cake a bit like a strudel, and if I was good I was allowed to stay up and help.The warmth and smell of that kitchen is still with me at this time of year. We used to have fruit compote with it.
An empty place was always set for any weary traveller who might need food and a bed.

I’m English (and not religious), my wife is 2nd generation Polish but Wigilia is just such a lovely occasion. And yes, we had the empty place set and the dishes you mention as well as the lovely Makowiec poppy seed cake. Just the 3 of us this year though.
