Christmas day dinner.

Santa came early yesterday and delivered my copy of the new book "The Warsaw Conspiracy" by James Conroyd Martin. I could only read the first 30 pages before we started to make the second batch of chruschiki but it's very good. We'll take the second batch tomorrow when we go to a friends dinner party and get a lot of opinions of our baking. It should be interesting.

Christmas dinner was excellent. The first time experience of eating roasted duck was very good, very tasty although I was a little suprised that a five pound duck didn't have a lot of meat on it.  Nevertheless, the duck, salad, potatoes, zucchini, noodles with poppy seed ,coffee, apple pie and chruschiki were all excellent. Joan did a great job preparing the meal while I set the table.


艢wi臋ty przyszed艂 wcze艣nie wczoraj i dostarczone m贸j egzemplarz nowej ksi膮偶ki "Conspiracy Warszawa" Jamesa Conroyd Martin. Mog臋 czyta膰 tylko pierwsze 30 stron, zanim zacz膮艂 tworzy膰 drug膮 parti臋 chruschiki ale to bardzo dobre. We藕miemy drug膮 parti臋 jutro, kiedy idziemy na obiad przyjaci贸艂 partii i uzyska膰 wiele opinii tego wypieku. Powinny by膰 interesuj膮ce.

Kolacja by艂a doskona艂a.Pierwsze do艣wiadczenie czasie jedzenia pieczona kaczka by艂a bardzo dobra, bardzo smaczne, cho膰 by艂em troch臋 zaskoczony, 偶e pi臋膰 kaczka funt nie maj膮 du偶o mi臋sa na nim. Niemniej jednak, kaczka, sa艂atka, ziemniaki, cukinia, makaron z makiem, kawa, szarlotka i chruschiki by艂y doskona艂e. Joan 艣wietn膮 robi艂a przygotowuj膮c posi艂ek, a ja ustawi膰 tabeli.
