Easter Sunday Brunch


dress - H&M (Garden Collection)   shoes - Aldo   tights - Zara  earrings and clutch - Banana Republic  bangles - H&M

Babka (Polish Easter bread)

Fresh spring flowers

Boiled Eggs and Kubasa 
I only ate the eggs but I thought I'd throw in some sausage for my carnivore readers

Jelly Belly's! I think I had about 15 of these

My Grandma's delicious pastries

My adorable cousin/"niece" Lily, modeling the sunglasses I got her.
Earlier in the day she said, "My ear is itchy. I must have eaten something itchy." Ha!


I hope you all had a relaxing and rejuvenating Easter weekend! Did anyone else gain 3 to 5 pounds in the past three days?? For those of you that have today off I am jealous and for those of you that have to work welcome to the club. : (

    Oh yes, and I also see PISANKI - painted eggs. I'm from Poland so I know Easter traditions. :) Babka is delicious! I'm fairly new reader to your blog, so I'm very surprised to see these Polish accents. :) XOXO

    such great food for Easter! I remember having polish neighbours and our dear friend Kouba (not sure how you spell his name since we were 7 back then) but Easter was a total feast and the amount of food his mom made was unbelievable!!!

    You look so cute all dressed up! And yes, I gained 3 to 5 lbs as well. I'd like to think it's only 3. But I think it's more like 5. Boo.

    You're Lucky I Don't Have a Gun: I'm half Polish. My Dad was born there and immigrated to Canada when he was really young. My family on my Dad's side all speak the language (sadly i don't) and carry on all the Polish traditions during holidays and gatherings, which I love : ) Enjoy your pierogies!

    I think that same plate could have been on our table on Sunday...eggs, kubasa and all! Looks like a delish Easter.
    I too sadly gained 3-5 lbs. This winter "weight" has got to go!

    aw :( I haven't stopped by here for quite some time. I made a ton of changes on my blog, then got wrapped up in school that I completely stopped visiting everyone's blog. Makes me sad how hard it can be to keep up with everyone. Sort of wish I could just pick up the phone and ask How you're doing? Well, I can see you still look absolutely gorgeous, and to answer your question I think I might have gained 6 pounds over easter break (LOL!)


    Have a great weekend!
