On Friday we were in Toruń, a sweet old town on the Vistula, best known for its gingerbread... Or, if we're splitting hairs, pepperbread (pierniki toruńskie), because in Toruń they add black pepper, which is not in the usual gingerbread you're used to.

They have a museum, where we took a class and actually made gingerbread ourselves.

We finished the day having pierogi -- but this time I chose the baked version -- and Killer Polish Beers (KPB).
