Merry Ukrainian Xmas

[sumdumguy]

To all my Ukrainian friends, enjoy the perogies
and all the trimmings. We should kiss the ground
we walk on and thank the Lord everyday that our
ancestors either were driven out or were foolish
enough to land here. Lucky ducks.

To the Ukranian woman with the frying pan: If I
was in the area, I'd be sitting at your table
wanting fried perogies for breakfast. With sour
cream. Merry Christmas, from Pars with the fork
and spoon.

We had a great Christmas and the children
loved it. Was the first time in their life that they
got more than candy for a Christmas present.

They had there first halloween as well as they
dont have halloween in Ukraine.

lots of firsts for them since they came to
Canada.



Perogies in Ukrainian is Veranica. " Not sure on
the English spelling"

Jag, thank the good lord you have them home.
So happy for you and them. They came to the
best country in the world because of your
perserverance. Dy bozhe!

щасливого Різдва back to you Jag and your "chosen" family!
My wife was adopted so I know you have drastically changed someone's life in the best ever time and place on earth. Bless you.
I thank the mother in law often for choosing my wife.
I asked my dad on the spelling or closest English, Polish is "pierogi" just as it sounds.
He thought Ukrainian would be "pyrohy", and Varinky was another dish.
What ever, they are a treat, enjoy and love the little ones. З Новим роком, if Google is correct!

Heartening that Orthodox Christmas traditions are
known and respected. But for our unbelievable
luck some of us would be observing them in
Russian, if at all.

Incidentally, Jag, your posting translates as
"Lucky Christmas." The traditional greeting is
"Christ is born, glorify Him" and "Lucky (or
Fortunate)New year"

I got my Ukrainian translation from google
translate. My wife can write and read Ukrainian
but i cant.

I think different parts of Ukraine use different
words.

My wife said in the part of Ukraine they are
from Pudaha is a word for baked perogy and
Veranica is boiled perogy.
