Last week Izzie and I were in Poland, visiting mum, eating too many delicious things. While in Klodzko, I insisted on visiting my favourite bakery, where I have once eaten the best doughnuts ever, filled with advocaat, where I’ve eaten napoleonka so good, that I immediately wanted to learn how to make it. Maslanka’s is not a cheap spot, which my mum pointed out too many times, in spite of the fact that I paid for all the goods.

There were no doughnuts today, the saleswoman explained they will come back in autumn, but, she said, today was The National Jagodzianka Day and so they had them in abundance. I got 4 of them and a few other bits and pieces.

Not sure whether it was because I didn’t have them in a long time, or maybe they were simply spectacular, those jagodzianki were the best thing I have eaten within a week in Poland. I couldn’t honestly say it out loud in front of mum, who cooked for us all week, plus she kept on going on about how hers were better and how 15PLN for a jagodzianka is a bleeding robbery. Izzie and I scoffed them down panting with pleasure!!!!
