Dear friends,
How are you doing? We have just come back from a small trip to Saint Petersburg. Do you travel a lot across your country? We do. We often make one-day trips to small towns not far from Moscow to get better acquainted with Russian history and culture. Saint Petersburg is not a small town, but the second largest city in Russia which was a capital about hundred years ago. Today our president Putin tries to divide Moscow capital duties with Saint Petersburg.

But I won’t tell you a lot about, I would prefer to share with you my impressions how beautiful St. Petersburg is in warm and sunny autumn. Its European style buildings, stony pavements and mysterious channels, all covered with bright yellow and red maple leaves, make me feel happy and lucky to have had a chance to fall in love with such a magnificent city… Well, I’d better to stop here and pass you a new recipe ;-)

Mix 2 eggs with milk and salt to your taste. Pour the mixture into pumpkin puree and mix again. Add flour as much as needed to make batter dense enough for pancakes. Heat oil in the pan and bake small rounds on one side until golden and on the other side for 1-2 minutes. Pumpkin olady are better served hot with sour cream.
