I am a new mom to a beautiful 7 month old. I just got out of the military and my husband is still in. We are moving to California in a month I'm a big fan of the classics. My mom is the best cook in the world so anything that she has taught me. My husband is from Uzbekistan (Soviet Union) so I cook a lot of Russian foods. My family and I always ate spaghetti the night that we hung the lights on the x-mas tree. My husband and I make bleeny on sundays. (It's a russian style dessert/crepe) One time I made manthi all by myself. (Anyone who knows how to make that knows that it's an accomplishment) The first time I made potato soup. I scrubbed the bottom of that pot for at least an hour!
