Be like a cabbage and roll...

My Russian cousin Luba is visiting today and making cabbage rolls and pelmeni. Yum. The house smells wonderful and she has been cooking up a storm for hours. I've been a diligent sous chef but she outlasted me and I'm taking a break while everything boils to blog.

Here are the pics:

Meat filling for both:



The gorgeous chef... my cousin Luba!




My very inferior Chicken Olive Surprise...



I wish we had taste-o-vision. You'd be so happy right now!

I hope you are having a making memories kind of day too.

Love,

Jan

Oh my goodness those look delicious! How in the world does she seal those things so tightly? There has to be a well guarded secret.

Luba is amazing. I watched her but still couldn't get the hang of it. She whipped up that dough in 5 minutes flat! Each cabbage roll stayed perfectly packaged too! My freezer is full and our tummies were too.

Come visit for yummies!
