Afternoon spread.

Burek: Azerbaijani regional phyllo dough pastry filled with cheese. To be eaten with a sumac yogurt sauce or Turkish sour cherry preserves. Pickles, cheeseboard spread, and banana pudding to keep the whole situation “local&rd

And you may ask yourself...

Scones, muffins, chicken apple sausage, fruit salad, strawberry pop-tarts, whipped cream, and absolutely no vegetables in sight cheesy baked eggs. Kid friendly breakfast with about two gallons of coffee not pictured. Thank you, White Claw + IPAs.

Possibly 3/10 husbands (def not mine) would recommend me for their next staining or painting project. Guess I’ll stick with this whole workplace change/strategy thing.

Silver lining of early morning, other side of the world meetings is having a few hours to bake scones and read. In total silence.

All the usual suspects including жареная картошка (Russian fried potatoes which are unlike any other potatoes) a la @feyvictor.
Never let anyone tell you unsalted butter is the way to go. Those people don’t know how to live.

Something about an apple and a tree.

Dutch baby didn’t billow and turned into more of a Dutch pancake cookie. Good thing about food is it only 1/3 matters if it’s pretty.

Weather dropped twenty degrees, it’s been raining for days on end, people aren’t wearing masks anywhere... Matzoh ball soup + crusty bread because why the f not?
