The next three days

Here in Poland Christmas is celebrated over three days.  Today (Christmas Eve) is called Wigilja (not sure on the spelling).  We we will eat a mean prepared of 12 dishes. The only meat allow is fish.  There will be fried carp and pickled herring (gulp). Tonight I am eating my directors house.  Her husband is gone for the holidays and she has her family in from Warsaw.  I thought this would be a safe place to eat since I am not use to the different types of food and she wouldn't be offended if I don't like something and she won't make me eat food if I don't like it.  It's a good place to try something new.  Tomorrow is Christmas day 1 and Monday will be Christmas day 2. Day 1 I will be visiting my friend Maddie and her family for the afternoon after our Christmas service at church. On Monday I will be at my principal's house. I have already been told we will have a turkey for dinner. I am so excited for that!


Since it is break this next week I took yesterday for myself and just relaxed. Next week i know I will need to get some work done and make good use of this time off. Especially since I have a trip coming up in a few weeks.  Yesterday I tried my hand at making cinnamon rolls. It didn't turn out the way I had hoped but what did work out turned out really tasty.  Above are some pictures of my cooking. :)
