Our dear friend, Zbyszek, who died a few years ago, left behind a son, daughter, and three grandchildren. His daughter, Malgorzata, majored in the Bulgarian language and culture. 15 or so years ago, she moved there permanently. We have known here since before she moved. The last time we saw each other was at her father's funeral.
She came today to visit us because she was in Poland to spend Christmas with her brother and his family.
She arrived with ciasto and a Christmas plant for our house. We talked about how the year has been for each of us, what travels we have made this year, a little about the unrest in Bulgaria and the U.S. with each government, and future plans. It was a nice visit.
