    Gee, I never thought of it that way! I've always eaten everything in sight, no thoughts questioned!

    Could that include Pierogis?

    Mom used to make Pierogis and Golompkis...both yummy!

    She was from the Ukraine and came to America with her Father in 1923 aboard the SS Olympic, sister ship of the Titanic, launched one year earlier.

    "Kalinka, Kalinka, Kalinka, maya"...Russian folk song meaning Snowy Raspberry.

    For others wondering: Pierogi (pronounced "pee-err-ogee") are made of typical dumpling dough rolled fairly thin, cut into rectangles about cigarette-pack size, with a blob of filling sealed inside by folding over. The filling may be meat, sauerkraut, cabbage, or a combination. My ex- made them, and they tasted wonderful! Her mother learned after the war, having been forcibly brought to Germany during the war from Poland, to use seasonings most advantageously, having little food to go around. Mother passed ability to daughter!

    Golompki (pronounced "go-wump-kee") are what we usually call "stuffed peppers". Bell peppers, bigger the better, hollowed-out and filled with a mix of fried-up ground beef, seasonings, and rice, then baked and finally covered with cheese. Alternatively, they are made using cabbage leaves. My Mother made a kind of take-off on this she called "birds". Square pieces of cooked round steak beef about 1/2-inch thick, cut into wide strips, then overlaid with strips of raw carrot, onion, and something else I've forgotten, rolled-up, then baked in the oven. She pierced them through with a toothpick, to keep them rolled-up! Amazed to learn, when my new wife revealed they, too, made "birds", German-style, called "Ruladen" (rolls).
