This is like the polish holy grail

There we are, 3 generations of Wroblewski men with a very sought after item in the clutches of my very proud father. Every year for Easter my dad makes a lamb cake which always seems to make just such a lovely centerpiece for the table, not to mention an awesome conversation piece for me and my brother. We usually argue and joke about which of us will be the lucky one to eat the ass of the lamb and talk about how well the lamb was decorated, all joking aside it does have a very special place in our hearts and at the table during Easter. My dad makes the lamb cake himself with medium to low quality stamped metal lamb mold that you can buy just about anywhere. Its always a little tricky to make because of the quality of the mold not distributing the heat evenly. My dad has always talked about wanting a cast iron lamb cake mold, and for years i've been looking for one to buy him. Every time I found one the price was too high and it was of poor quality. A couple of weeks ago I came across one on ebay that I just couldn't pass up. Needless to say I bid on it and I won. Once I received the lamb cake mold I really wanted to give it that final touch for my dad. I took it to work and used one of the machines to engrave it, it reads: " To : Grandpa Love : Aimee and Daniel " When my dad saw it he was blown away and I think that it was all the more special because it was a gift from his grandkids. I dont know if the lamb cake at Easter is a polish tradition or if everyone does it, but I know it's a tradition that im going to keep and pass on to my kids.

Now Thats Fashion

This is why I love Chicago and more importantly Maxwell Street (my church away from church). Where else can you buy goat meat taco's, socks, stolen cd's, a jackhammer, and shoelaces all within a few feet from each other................and have the privelage to meet this guy.

MOM.................Don't Look!

Sick Bike!

All hands above the water please.........

is what my wife said just before taking this picture. As you all can clearly see, myself and the other person in the picture (who shall not be named to protect his identity.......hint: a very very powerful, important, and influential politician...............scandal!) are both wearing our wedding rings. Incidentially, don't try to guess because you will never get it in a million years..........no really you wont. What is it that they say "what happens in the hot tub stays in the hot tub" or is that vegas, anyhoo I would also like to mention that there happens to be a large quantity of alcohol visible in this photo. Let me tell you something about me, I buy a case of beer and it last me about 3-6 months depending on a few things.

1. time of year (summer months are more conducive to consumption of yummy beverages)

2. food that I eat (can't beat pizza and beer)

3. if i'm out with the guys and we need to wet our whistles

4. if I just so happen to be hottubbing with very very powerful, important, and influential politicians

So don't let the the alcohol in this picture worry you mom...........it's really nothing.

Plowing A Piss Runway


Because my dog has short legs this is what I have to do everytime it snows. Its kind of hard to take a leak when you have snow up to your weiner. The next time we get a dog the "sumbitch" (technical term used for any animal, vegetable, or mineral) will be about the size of Barkley from Sesame Street.
On another note, do any of you people know what it is like to have Wiggle's songs stuck in your head for 10 or 12 hours at a time?
