Hi,

This is isn't specifically for USA/Canada, but for anyone who's grown up Polish outside of Poland. How did your Polish parents and relatives embarrass you in those all-too-easy-to-embarrass teenage years? Perhaps your mother brought you pierogi at school (as mine did), or perhaps your dad would address your friends with that famous "Polish directness" when you brought them home (yep, had that too). I'd love to hear your stories.

Probably when the old dear insisted on taking photos of my friends and I eating. every meal. Years and years later, she still seems to think taking photographic evidence of someone shovelling food into their mouths will make a good photo ....

My embarrassing moments were when the neighborhood kids would walk in my mom's kitchen. Her simmering pot of kapusta would stink up the entire house. Frying pans full of sizzling kielbasa, resembling phallic symbols, were also quite an embarrassing sight, lol! A sincere thanks PF, for putting up with me FIVE terrific years, muah!
