Stari Baba
I never know where there might be some link to Polish . . . today I wanted to put some eucalyptus in a vase on a shelf too high to reach. When I told my husband I needed the ladder, he teased my decorating and called me a “stari baba.” It turns out, he remembered this from 50 or 60 years ago! When his Mother remarried, the family moved to Gary, Indiana. His step father was Polish. There were many Polish people in the area because of the steel mills. He thinks he must have heard it from his friends.
“Old lady! -- thanks a lot!
