– “Tell me how he died.”

-“I will tell you how he lived.”

The Last Samurai, 2003

 

In memory of Marek Rudnik.

Who was Marek?

 

Every time when somebody asks me that question the simplest answer is: Marek was a wonderful person. Everyone who knew him or spent time with him was “infected” by his positive attitude, genuine optimism and good sense of humour. He was a man with a heart of gold. He was an unselfish person who frequently helped those in need, whom most of us would pass by indifferently.  He changed many people’s lives, not only by lending a hand, but also by setting an example, by showing how to live your life and how to be open-minded to others. On the one hand, he was an extremely caring family man, on the other, very firm and creative person. He was truly a real source of strength and the life and soul of the party.

Marek had many interests, but three of them were his true passions: fishing, trekking and cooking. And because of that last one, “Gotowanie to nie wyzwanie” (“Cooking is not a challenge”) blog was started. It was created for Marek and was supposed to be run by him, so that he could publish his sophisticated and amazing recipes. His approach to cooking was  planned and careful, but also seasoned with a little bit of chaos and improvisation. By changing recipes without limitation and creating totally new dishes he joyfully played with tastes. Unfortunately, at age 39 he unexpectedly passed away leaving behind many unfulfilled dreams and enormous void. This blog is run by his wife and daughter, who are supported by their family and  friends. They run it according to Marek’s wishes and in memory of him.
