Perogies

It's been a while since I had perogies and you know I can't eat the potato and cheese ones. I am a spoiled brat who likes hers with meat or fruit. Ok, so I can't make the meat ones because I have no grinder that would combine the ingredients evenly, so fruit it is.

Found out mother's secret recipe. Of course it went something like this. Flour - you'll know how much by looking at it. Add some water. How much water? You'll know when to stop.

What is this - an instinct every Polish person is born with - you just know when you make the right perogy dough.

I must say - I surprised myself. I think I recreated my mother's dough. And all of you who have tasted my mother's perogies, you know how amazing they are. I used strawberries and had a great perogy feast.

Sounds absolutely fantastic! Another way to get to know this city and Ukrainian isn't so far removed from Polish - tastes quite the same.
