Picture ravioli instead of gnocchi. Have you looked at the pictures on
my webpage? On the first page, look towards the bottom; I believe the
note is Pirohy Marathon 2003. There's also a note (no pics) from
1-17-04.

One pierog, two pierogi (Monika will tell me if I'm wrong -- if Bubba
Vic doesn't get here first.)

What's traditional is up for grabs. Depends on what you grew up with,
IMO. Some MUST have sour cream on top of the potato/cheese filled ones;
we NEVER put sour cream on top of any of our. The proper shape for them
is triangular. Trust me.
