I chose person of heritage because that my mother's family was Polish. At her home on the east side of Detroit everybody would switch from speaking English to Polish like it was nothing. My my maternal grandmother was really good at it and would do so keep my sisters and I from hearing any "family gossip."

 

There was a bakery close by that we would get fresh rye and pumpernickel bread and chrusciki (angel wings-fried dough sprinkled with powdered sugar) with a loft over it where during Prohibition (according to Grandma) members of the Purple Gang would mob up before going a few miles east to the Detroit River, then boat across (or in winter, drive on the ice) to Canada and the business of one Hiram Walker, where they would by liquor and transport it back for sale in the local speakeasies.

 

Grandma also got me to try czarnina (duck's blood soup) Yuck! Da mi pivo (Gimmie a beer)!
