Late Tips Tuesday..
Never wear white or black color dresses as a guest to a wedding, unless it's a dress code you were asked for! It's considered impolite and disrespectful to the Bride. White color is her color that day and if she chooses to wear ivory, her dress will look off next to you. The black dress at the wedding?? Absolutely no! Wear something more fun, otherwise you will look like you're mourning instead of celebrating.
Hope it helps!

Girly time with my daughter Monika. Went early in the morning to Sherman Oaks and stood in the line for almost 30 min to get jewish borekas filled with cheese, spinach, potatoes and butter and fungi, onions and other delicious stuff. They are opened only a few hour a day and there is always a line. Sometimes they are sold out in the 1st hour.
Then drove to asian market to Arcadia to get some fruit you can't get at a regular grocery store, like durian and mangosteens, and preserved duck eggs. Can't wait to try it!
Durian usually is sold frozen, because of the strong smell. It starts to defrost on my counter and my kitchen starts to smell.. should I take it outside? 😂

Hey there, egg and seafood lovers! Are you tired of the same old scrambled eggs and omelets for breakfast, simply roasted salmon? Well, it's time to switch things up and try making this frittata! This dish is not only delicious but also fun to say - go ahead, try saying it five times fast.
This is how this frittata was born. I had some leftover salmon from my salmon crudo and I had some leftover crab stuffed unfried zucchini blossoms sitting in the fridge. Puff and this amazing frittata was created! It tastes amazing! Salmon, fluffy eggs and pockets of crab stuffing in zucchini blossoms.

Chebureki is the national dish of the Crimean Tatars but they are widely known all across the post-Soviet countries. I am from Lithuania and it was very popular in Soviet Union time. Usualy it's made with dough, but this is lazy ones, so I used lavash. Hope you will like it!
