Thanks for this lesson in Ukrainian culture. I can't help but think of my great-grandfather when I read your posts. I never met him but feel like I know him through the stories my Mom tells me. I would definitely like to taste that bread!
When I smell the aroma of fresh bread, I believe it is the most delicious food in the world. 🥰
Thank you so much for your comment. I am so happy to be a tiny link of the chain between you and your past. Sending the warmest greetings to your mother.

It's the same with me, fresh baked bread and a wood fire are my two favorite fragrances.
You're welcome. It really is great to learn more about the culture he came from. Thank you and I wish you and your family a good (and safe) week!
You're welcome! I found this new-ish YouTuber who just traveled to Ukraine. He has a series of four videos he shot there about a month ago. Kyiv is one beautiful city! The churches are amazing. I could barely believe that even during wartime Kyiv was cleaner than most US cities.
I am so glad to hear that!
Thanks for the video, it was funny to see our city through the eyes of a foreigner. And he came to Ukraine after visiting Russia, hmm...
It is Lviv in this video, the biggest city in the west of Ukraine, close to the Polish border. But I will look for his footage from Kyiv.
Take care and have a god week!
Yeah, I thought it might be entertaining to see that foreign perspective. He tried some traditional Ukrainian cherry wine and it was so strong it nearly wrecked him! Lol.
He's a relatively new YouTuber who's trying to make a name for himself and he's taking way too many chances, in my opinion. He flew into Moscow first, which there's no way I'd do as an American right now. Then he took a 14 hour bus trip to Kyiv.
Thanks, enjoy your week as well!
