Ah Babushkas brings me back to my trip in Krakow, Poland where I stayed in a little village with my friend's 80 year old grandma who we called Babooshka! We made jam and preserved all the fruit and vegetables freshly picked from the farm - all in preparation for the winter months! It was a wonderful experience where it was a barter system between neighbours. For example, "I'll give you our cow's milk in exchange for your hen's eggs"
