Monday was perogy day. I told two of my friends about perogies and how delicious they are and then convinced them to help me make some. It still boggles my mind that people don't know about perogies. I can't imagine life without them. That is why even though they take a lot of effort to make I do it because I LOVE them.
Lauren and Amanda helped me out and did a fantastic job. It took me so long to make them last time I did them by myself but with these two we just motored. Here they are hard at work.
We froze a few, boiled the rest and then even ate a couple (dozen).
This was out set up. My dough mat hard at work. I love that thing!
This is Lauren trying to fish out the perogy she dropped in the flame.
Don't worry nothing goes to waste here, we ate it.
This is Amanda and her "practically perfect perogy", as she called it.
I think I got it in the ones I took home and it was delicious!
Two thumbs up for my perogy pinchers!
(Side note: when I went to my Catholic elementary school, ladies from the church affiliated with our school called themselves "The Perogy Pinchers" and sold us perogies about once a month. We are the next generation)
I am looking a little hunched over and sweaty from all the dough rolling I did.
But it was worth it!
In the end I think we made about 8 dozen perogies and only ate about 2 dozen of them that night. Joel and I ate all of ours within about 24 hours. Sooo good. Thanks ladies for your help, we have to do it again when we come back from holidays.
For those of you that don't know what Movember is, click here.
Basically Joel is growing a moustache and raising money for prostate cancer research. Here is what it looks like this week. Classy right?
Some of our generous family and friends have already donated and if you want to too just follow this link. http://ca.movember.com/mospace/1266300/. He is part of a team so feel free to donate to them as well or just check out all their nice staches.
I'll leave you with one more picture of Joel's ever growing moustache.
