chlebičky with grandma Véra

For the last month Jeremy has been talking to one of our older friends in the church, whom we call grandma Vera (since she is a grandma...) about learning how to make the delightful little sandwiches she brought to church one day. She told him that sometime in February would be nice and that she would give him a hat and apren to wear. So we went over in the afternoon and learned how to make chlebičky. And man, did we make chlebičky! Tons of them. The entire time I couldn't help but think who was going to eat all these tiny little snacks, because there were hundards of them. It was a really enjoyable afternoon, because we learned how to make a typical czech snack and also got to hangout with a wonderful family.


When we first came to Policka during the English camp in the summer we met grandma Vera and her daughter Vera and family and her daughter in law named Vera also. Our dinner with them (and Paula and Kelsey) in the summer was definatly one of the best times we have had over here, so of course the chlebičky party was super fun.

Ok, make sure you bring the recipe with you when you come home in June so we can try the chlebicky.
How nice of Grandma Vera to teach you. Love, Grandma D
