My other thread got me wondering what everyone favorite meal was growing up. Food from your culture or region.


One of my favorite food is "zumma borsht" (german for summer borsht) It basically has patatoes, mennonite sausage, onion, parsley lots dill, salt and pepper and buttermilk. This is a mennonite staple.


What's your favorite?

yea, that sunday roast sounds good too. Chicken Saturday and roast on Sunday, that's how we grew up.

My two favourites from my Ukrainian heritage are Holubtsi (cabbage rolls) and perogies (but only the cheese and potato kind).

And my mom's summer stew with baby veggies from the garden.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
