Cooking Lessons

At the beginning of April I began "cooking lessons" with our office manager Vaida.  Vaida is a Lithuanian and knows how to make all the Lithuanian staples, so Kim and I asked her to teach us how to make some Lithuanian foods for fundraising banquets that we were both planning for our time in the US.  We spent the evening making kepta duona, balta misraine, potato pancakes and tinginys.  It was fun to work in the kitchen with these ladies and to make authentic Lithuanian food!
