Sunday 17 March 2024

As a Slav, I simply cannot miss the last day of Maslenitsa/Masnytsia, as tomorrow the Great Orthodox Lent starts: once I was a person who held it for the full forty days, until Pascha (Easter), but I am not the greatest Eastern Orthodox Christian now and stopped going for it a while ago. Well, anyway, you simply cannot go out and about today without pancakes (my bliny are more like crepes) served with salmon (I cured it the day before, myself) and with something sweet, too (orange marmalade, you are the best). Today is also Forgiveness Sunday, but I am the person who holds grudges (I have a long-lasting memory), so there.
