I may be a little biased, but Polish is definitely the best nationality out there. Us Polish stay very true to our ancestry and live out our traditions as much as possible. Here are just a few of the many signs that you are indeed Polish and loving every second of it.
1. Sto Lat is always sung on birthdays (The song is meant to wish 100 years on the person...I promise, it actually works).
2. Every family party includes pierogi, dumplings, kapusta, ham, sausage, and every other polish food under the sun.
3. You also know how to make homemade pierogi like a pro.
4. At least one person in the family knows how to play accordion and all the hit polkas.
5. Weddings. Need I say more?
6. On a baby's first birthday, the baby must choose from a rosary, money, and a shot glass to see what the future holds.
7. Most call it Fat Tuesday. We call it Paczki Day.
8. During the holidays, Oplatki is shared with one another at dinner.
9. No one has yet to pronounce your last name correctly on the first try (it's really not that hard).
10. Grandparents are often called by the names Busia and Dziadzia.
11. On Easter, your family always takes the baskets of food to Church to get blessed.
12. We tend to be overly dramatic about everything.
13. You come from a very Catholic family.
14. We will climb mountains to get a good deal on something.
15. Your family is loud and crazy but you wouldn't have it any other way.
