I am bracing for my big baking of the year--tomorrow.
My annual baking of my "Pirags" which I am expected to bring
to every X-mas get-together...I make about 200 easy. Freeze some too.

What will be fun is that Tony, a really nice. lovable guy from HD--
also the Grden Supervisor--wants to learn how to make these--from scratch.

He will be here tomorrow at 9:30AM--and I will let him do all the work.
He wants to....Kneading that dough in the bowl, at the end by hand, is pretty tiring.
Gotta do it till it comes free from your hands and the bowl. Then it is done.

After that--cover the bowl with a heavy terry towel and let it rise to 2x the volume.
SOOOO fragrant! SOOOO nice to work with...A true labor of love,,once a year.

Had some fun one year with the finished pile.... Gita
