It always makes me laugh a little how my husband, who is Turkish, tries to insist that EVERYTHING is Turkish. Really, I am Irish and just want to be Irish....I don´t care who migrated to where hundreds of years ago and might have breed with an outside tribe . Honestly, with all the migrating that went on in the world, is anyone really a pure blooded anything? Woops, sorry, the Turks are the only unspoilt people on earth! hahaha
And, Lemon....do try to not be so sour! You are making my face pucker!
aha!  i know that. and you know they all come from central asians! 
lemon can only lemonize! i make old urban limescales dissolve.
what can i say? mesopotamia is messypotamia. the craddle of humanity not only civilizations!

Actually, the fact that many Turks try to find commonality in different cultures is flattering in a way. It reminds me of the movie, "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," when the father in the movie always tried to find the Greek root of every word (even if the word was Japanese). It is human nature to seek what is common in obviously different things. Human nature dictates that we try to connect to eachother.
ahahahahaha right on! exactly! thats why i love that movie! i watched it hundreds of times.
anyway, greeks are turks and turks are greeks! shhhhhh, dont tell them!

I loved Tommy Tiernan´s speech about how the Irish infest. But the Irish migration now is nothing compared to the Polish one these days. Soon, you´ll all be eating pierogi and sauerkraut and listening to our coarse language *evil laugh* Oh, and we´re not Turkish  (are we?  ), but part of Istanbul already is Polish - Polonezkoy!

You call it pierogi, but they are also called manti, kreplach, wonton.....it seems every culture has them. I think it´s one of those things like when you rub your eyes everyone sees the same patterns.
Then about the sauerkraut....there are many variations of that too....I love sauerkraut...but I was not aware it is a Polish dish....???

I thought that ´Sauerkraut mit Bratwurst´ was really German!
