Emma BakerLooking forward to it. My sister lives near State College so I might drive over with her and the little one. Will there be a meal after Liturgy?

Teresa RomeroYes, there will be a meal after the Liturgy, as they always do at Holy Trinity. I'll go with my husband and the little one, to see if we meet your sister. A hug.

Marie ČernáI would also like to see it, but on July 12th we have a niece's christening in Pilsen, so it won't work out. Emma, I hope you have a nice time with your sister and the little one at that meal after the liturgy.

Daniel WilsonYeah, the fellowship meal after Liturgy is usually pretty solid—last time they had those pierogi from one of the ladies that are hard to beat. Driving with your sister and the little one sounds nice; hope the weather cooperates that day. You going to bring anything for the meal?

Petra SvobodováToo bad, Marie, those christenings sound so nice. We recently had a nephew's christening here in Liberec, and then there was a proper goulash menu at the table after mass. Emma, if you're going to take pictures of the lunch, send at least one picture here in the comments.

Hana DvořákováThat sounds good, the christening stew is a classic. At our place in Brno last time, after our daughter's christening, we only had schnitzel and potato salad, but everyone enjoyed it. Emma, if you send a photo, I'd love to see how it turned out for you.

Tereza SvobodováThat's right, goulash after christenings is also a proven classic here, especially when it's warm and nobody wants to stand by the stove. We in Pilsen deal with it similarly to those in Brno - steaks and salad are reliable and fast. Emma, send the photo so we can see if you had it as slim as we did. 😊

Lenka SvobodováYes, goulash after christenings is also a staple here, especially when it's hot. We in Pilsen handle it the same way - schnitzels with potato salad and that's it, no one sweats by the stove. Emma, send the photo so we can compare if you had thin slices like us.
