Food pics are always fun!!!

I know, I know…  I am finally moving toward some more interesting blog topics instead of just my activities.  And here are two food pictures for all of you.

A train picnic for Sara.  As all of you know by now, train travel in Ukraine is LONG, really LONG.  So, train picnics are a must.  Sara came thru Lugansk the other day on her was to Dniproetrovsk and I asked while she was on the bus from her town if she needed dinner.  She said that would be awesome.  So here is what I came up with.  Luckily I usually have food in my house with regular PCV and friends coming by, so this was pretty easy to put together and very fun! 

Train Picnic includes: a sandwich bag of chips, two small sandwiches with mayo, mustard, cheese and salami, a bag of lettuce and sliced tomato to add to the sandwich, four waver bars, two peaches AND an empty Nutella jar filled with white wine (her favorite part)

Many thanks to my sisters for the Ziploc bags for making this possible. 

And here is what making Blinchiki looks like in my kitchen.  Much like crepes, but so much better.  There is even homemade Apricot Pineapple Jam.  I have more time here on the weekends for sleeping and lazy cooking mornings, so I often make Blinchiki on Saturday or Sunday.  Yummy!!!  And so far I have always had friends staying the weekend to share it with, which makes it even better.
