Rieszka's Bouquet

I was sold this beautiful bouquet by a Polish lady here in San Francisco named Rieszka. She spoke lovingly of her 93 year old mother who swims every day and we gushed together over the beauty of the city of Krakow. Upon parting I said, "Dziekuje bardzo" (Thank you very much) to which she replied: "Prosze bardzo" (You're welcome very much)...
