N and I went out for breakfast today and ordered the saddest, healthiest, pathetically virtuous meals.
“Wow, you guys are really into healthy living. I admire that,” the waitress said.
Little does she know that the sudden attack of culinary virtue is nothing but preparation for a massive pig-out on the world’s unhealthiest Soviet food tonight.
Fuck yeah! Happy new year, Clarissa!

I don’t understand why Soviet food is “the world’s unhealthiest.” I thought America won the first place in this competition too. 🙂
I tried to create a holiday mood, so we made Olivier salad. We also have piroshki with cabbage (I buy baked ones which are imported from Ukraine, iirc) and blini (also imported, our family’s blini are thicker and жирнее, so I buy blini too). I am the laziest ever in cooking.

We went through several big jars of Ukrainian “Nezhin” pickled tomatoes and mini-cucumbers this holiday season. Slava Ukraine! 🙂

Everything is processed, pickled, salty, and bathed in mayonnaise. It’s really bad. But delicious.
I recently discovered the history of the Olivier salad and need to write about it. It’s fascinating.
