Happy Easter!

I haven't written for a few days because I was busy helping my Mom prepare Easter celebration and also because I had a dance class presentation.
In Poland Easter is a very important holiday. Every year Mama makes many cakes and other yummy dishes.
This week she made 8 cakes, but only one is without nuts (I don't like nuts!). But she says that all Polish Easter cakes should have nuts and raisins. Here is a photo of Mama's cakes:

These cakes are called 'mazurki' in Polish.

On Friday Mama was busy baking and Zosia and I were painting eggs! I love painting eggs. I drew angles and hearts on my eggs.

Saturday was very, very busy. I had a dance class performance. We danced dances from Russia, Hungary, Spain, Philippines, India and Taiwanese aborigine dance. I like the Russian dance the most. The Spanish dance was very tiring.

Indian dance (very difficult)

Taiwanese aborigine dance

 After the dance class we went for a Food Blessing ceremony. It's a Polish tradition to bless food on a Saturday before Easter. We take food baskets to church to have it blessed by the priest. In the basket we have: bread, salt, sausage, cake and eggs.

After that we went for dinner with other Polish people.
Today is Ester Sunday which we started with a Mass at our church. Later my Grandparents and aunts came for lunch., We ate yummy sausage and salads and cakes ... Our neighbor also came to visit us.

My Daddy's Birthday!

The cake I made for Mama.

Yesterday I made a big birthday cake for my Dad. That was my second time to make a birthday cake, the first one was for my Mom. Both were sponge cakes, but each one was a bit different - my Dad's was with pineapple and colorful cream and my Mom's was with baked apples. Here are the photos:

The finished birthday cake for Daddy!

In the afternoon all four of us went to the Museum of Contemporary Arts to see a very interesting exhibition about new media in the art. Really cool! For dinner we went to an Italian restaurant called Mushroom Forest. The food wass very good, but my sister picked all the mushrooms out, because she doesn't like them.

My Dad's dish. It was super good! He gave me some to try.
