Winter Activities in Eastern Europe.
How true. Recently I inherited apartment after my late grandma. She wasn't hoarder, but being 97 years old, she was living frugal life. Nothing was wasted, thrown away.

My (Slovenian) grandfather would peel and slice apples for me up until he became seriously ill when I was 22. If I asked nicely he would even grate them for me. I miss my Nan and Pop.
