I'm STILL a self confessing, self professing know-it-all, or so I think!

Perogies anyone?

Toronto had two great street/neighbourhood festivals this weekend … both in High Park too. The Polish Festival on Roncesvalles and The Toronto Ukrainian Festival in Bloor West Village. Both offered so much culturally, but what drew me was the great food. This type of food takes me back to my childhood, and to what I grew up eating. These European foods are incredible … I particularly love the perogies first and foremost. My Mom made the BEST perogies, only we didn’t call them perogies. We called them vereniki and the were absolutely without equal. It was really great to go and enjoy the day, and thankfully the weather Gods co-operated too.(I know, I know, I should have posted before it started, not when it’s wrapping up … sorry)

Here’s the poster for the Polish Festival, I was unable to find anything for the Ukrainian Festival.
