An afternoon of BBQs and relaxation

It’s that time of year again, when the BBQ is brought out of the garage (or imported from the UK in this case – 600 zl cheaper!) and friends are invited around for kiełbasa, kaszanka, karkówka, udko kurczaka, burgery, sałatka and banoffee pie (not Polish, but a rather successful addition). The amount of meat consumed is considerable (bad timing when it comes to the photograph) and yesterday afternoon we all pleasantly stuffed ourselves with fine wine and good food. This week will therefore be a vegetarian week and, apart from the very thin slices of ham in my lunch sandwiches, we will not be eating anything that once rolled in mud, ate grass or was previously known as ‘Daisy’.

The kids had a great time too and Benji was introduced to his first hammock experience. He had so much fun navigating his way on and off it, over and over again, that we were blessed with many hours of peace and quiet until he eventually  pushed one of the other children off it and we had to put a stop to his “fun”.
