Strudels for Serb Fest

posted by dorothyp on Jun 29th, 2008 at 6:37 pm

So that's how they do it? The fine art of strudel - making takes skill, practice, and patience, as you can see in the photos. The ladies from our Kolo are busy preparing strudels of many flavors for all to enjoy at this year's Serb Fest on August 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. This year's Festival will be held at the CHURCH GROUNDS at 9191 Mississippi Street, so be sure to let all your friends know. The fabulous Bake Sale will be in the south wing.
