Parties and Pancakes
This week's crazy, in such a good way! Saturday night out partying till 7am in Barcelona; Tuesday spent preparing costumes (even making bell-bottoms.. you'll never guess what the finished costume was…) and heading off to Sitges for major carnival fun :-) Rolled back to Barcelona around 6am this morning. It was sooooo cool, but the night went by so quickly. Pics will follow soon, I promise!
And now I have to catch up on pancake day – and despite buying the wrong kind of flour ("integral" if that means anything to you), having no scales, measuring jug, or whisk.. I managed to make the best pancakes I've had in the last year…

A blinky!! My favourite food ever. Whenever I see pancakes on the menu I order that instead of dinner! In fact I'll fly to Moscow for a good blinski, if babuliya is cooking.

blinky? blinsky? babuliya?! I'm sorry dear cousin, but you're talking in tongues!!
I know I'm way overdue on the email front… but rain is forecast for the coming days, so I think you'll be way up there on the To Do list! I just have to think of something interesting that's happened in my life…
Hope you're all well xx

blinsky = pancake
babuliya = my brother's mother-in-law
blinky = my interpretation of the word blinsky that really gets my brother's back up …"it's NOT a BLINKY!!"
Looking forward to that email. I'm sitting at home with 2 kids remember…

a quick search found “bliny” or “blini”
Thank you for reminding me of these delicious treats. I was there in Gorbachev’s time and loved them.
Fire up the stove, Vlad: I’m coming for a visit!
