Picture of the fabulous “babki” for sale that are homemade by our ladies!
Babka (singular) – “babki” (plural) are sweet yeast cakes
Polish Easter would not be complete without Easter cake (babka): a tall, round, 10-yolk sweet yeast cake with a hole in the middle that can be compared to the American election cake.
Polsko Kanadyjskie Towazystwo Teatralne – Salon Poezji, Muzyki i Teatru w przedstawieniu teatralno muzycznym granym na wielu scenach świata
“Trójka wędrowców szła przez te wszystkie krajobrazy i każdy z nich niósł inne emocje, które znajdujemy w wierszach poety – od wielkiego smutku do radości. Przy przepięknej muzyce Jerzego Boskiego i Dariusza Króla zanurzenie się w świecie poezji było oczyszczeniem dla nas wszystkich. W Polsce odbywały się wieczory poezji ks. Jana Twardowskiego, lecz były one oparte wyłącznie na jego wierszach. Uznałam, że wzbogacanie poezji wyobraźnią muzyczną i obrazem cudownej polskiej przyrody, tak drogiej, szczególnie dla nas, emigrantów – jest szalenie ważne.” – Maria Nowotarska fragment z książkiBeaty Gołembiowskiej “Teatr bez granic”
Kazimierz Braun pisał: “Jego poezja jest niezwykle prosta i bezpośrednia, a zarazem ufundowana na autora niezłomnej wierze, bezwarunkowej nadziei i wszechogarniającej miłości. Ks. Twardowski ośmiela nas i zachęca abyśmy nie bali się kochać Boga, Bliźnich, piękna, a także dobrego, mądrego i pięknego teatru. Przedstawienie “Nie Bój się Kochać” jest wyjątkową okazją poznania wyjątkowej poezji i przeżycia szczególnych wzruszeń teatralnych”.
Dr. Jolanta Ambrosewicz-Jacobs will present her lecture on the CWRU campus in the Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences Building on Tuesday, February 5, 2019.
