So...did anyone have a brother drunk from a party stumble in

on Christmas Eve - just as a priest was over blessing the
perogies and kielbasa? He slept on a blanket by the washer and dryer in the basement and was gone before dawn.

Didn't think so. Is this the worst holiday story??

all the times we had Christmas Eve dinner at my son's house, my (Polish) DIL never had the priest there blessing the kielbasa and pierogi and kapusta and fried fish, etc.

Although we did exchange some special Polish saying before we ate, so maybe that's an alternative if all the priests are off blessing other peoples' dinners?

In any case, they moved out of state this past January and so this was the first time in many years we didn't get to have Xmas Eve dinner with them. Made me sad.
