Warsaw: Snow in Early April

Had to capture the atmosphere of this brief snow storm in early April.

For most of winter, Warsaw had seen next to no snow, but in early April, during the early days of the lockdown, it suddenly came.

Unfortunately, it all melted within 15-20 minutes.

Returning to Mass

What a relief it was to physically attend the old Latin Mass again last Sunday.

For over two months, I had had to watch the old Latin Mass streamlined on Youtube, which I did from an SSPX church in Florida. I think that watching Mass online is definitely better than doing nothing, but I can only view it as kind of half-attending Mass

On Ascension Thursday, I was lucky. After tuning in too late to catch the old Latin Mass from the SSPX church in Florida, I still managed to catch it from an ICKSP (Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest) church in Wausau, Wisconsin:
 

A Great Concoction

This concoction of pierogi and tomato soup worked a treat.

The pierogi was filled with broccoli and tomato soup made from aubergine, carrot, vegan sausage and a tin of tomatoes.

Seeing Mruczek Again

Always good to catch up with Mruczek:

Mruczek is the next door neighbour's cat and pest control officer in our barn.

Lilacs above the Well

Nice to see the lilacs out in the garden in eastern Poland.

Also nice to see our old friend, Mruczek, again:

My Tomato Soup

My quickly made tomato soup: I simmered small pieces of beetroot, carrot, potato, sweet potato, parsnip, and mushroom burger for 10-15 minutes; then simply added a tin of tomatoes and stirred for a few minutes. The result was surprisingly good.

Cheese Melting into the Aubergine

A shot of some cheese melting into half-simmered/half-steamed aubergine above.

This was then topped with courgette, sweet potato, and vegan sausage:

During these crazy times, it's good to keep getting the healthy meals in.
