Poppy Seed Roll (Makowiec)
Happy Holidays my dears!! Can you believe that Christmas is only 5 days away?! I am so unprepared this year.

In our family there are certain traditions that we do during the Christmas season and have ever since I can remember and I thought that it would be nice to share them with you all.. We (mostly my mom) spend countless hours decorating every inch of the house with Santa figurines, stockings., and Christmas trees.
