Hello my hungry friends!
As fans of Polish food blogs, I am writing to let you know that Lois from “Polish Housewife” blog and I are teaming up for an “ask me anything” session. We thought it would be fun to do a joint project, and taking reader questions seems like a good place to start. We’re all spending a lot of time at home, on video chats, so why not?
Lois and I have a lot in common:
- We’ve both lived in Poland and the United States. Our husbands both had careers in the US military. I grew up in Poland and first came to the USA as an exchange student, years after, married an American military man, so I spent many years in the United States (17, to be exact). Since my husband’s retirement, we’ve moved our Polish-American family to Poland. Lois’ husband worked in Poland for 5+ years as a civilian contractor with the Polish Air Force. An exciting adventure that followed his career as an F-1 6 pilot.
- We both write Polish food blogs, but we’re coming at it from different perspectives. I have always eaten these foods and learned to prepare them from my grandma and other family members. I honor her memory by preparing these dishes for my family and sharing them with you. Even though Lois didn’t have much experience with Polish food until she moved to Poland when her husband began working there, it quickly became her favorite. She was a new food blogger at the time and wanted to share all of the wonderful dishes she was learning with others. She delivers an interesting point of view and a curious approach to Polish cuisine.
- We’ve both self-published cookbooks. In both of our cases, the plan for self-publishing morphed as our projects progressed.
We’ll be sharing up a recipe while we’re chatting too. Each of us with her own take.
This is what we’re asking of you! SUBMIT A QUESTION or a TOPIC on which you’d like us to expand. While Lois and I have been acquainted for a few years, our conversations have always been by Facebook messenger. I think we’ll have plenty to say to each other when we speak, “in person”, but we want to make sure we’re hitting the topics that are of special interest to you.
By May 19th, please give us your input. You can leave it in a comment below, on our blogs, on Facebook, or Instagram. You can email Lois at lois@polishhousewife.com, and I have a comment form under “contact me” on my website, whatever is easiest.
We will stream our video conversation on Tuesday, May 26th, right after Memorial Day in the USA.
I hope to hear from you!
Anna & Lois
