Uh-Oh! I just realized that I think I do know the answer to this quiz. It hit me while I was brushing my teeth, of all things! I will reverse my vow to just "go for it" and will sit tight and wait to see if somebody else knows who it is. If nobody does, I'll answer later and wait to see if I'm correct.😢

Pamela | 2209 comments Since we are speaking other languages, all I have to say is this...
Dzien dobry daj mi zimne piwa!
It's one of the few things I know how to say in Polish. It also sums up the mood I am in! LOL!!!πŸ€ͺ
