This week it's Maslenitsa, or Pancake week, in Russia. We haven't had pancakes everyday here in Oslo, which is a shame, as I love the way my wife makes blini, but she's promised me we'll have them for dinner tomorrow. Today is mother-in-law's blini day, and I really wish Valia could be here to make me some :) I usually get them when we come visiting, and it's one of the things I look forward to about going to St. Petersburg. They are usually filled with some kind of meat, like ham, chicken or lungs mixed with eggs, and with sourcream on top, it's an absolute delicacy. If you ever go to Russia, be sure to visit a pancake house.
Anyways, as you can read from wikipedia, Maslenitsa is also the start of the fast, but I don't think we'll be following that tradition either ;-)
Show us something you made yourself.
