Thank you for posting this! My boyfriend is Russian Orthodox and this is just the reminder I need to surprise him with something. Orthodox fasting for lent is more strict than the Catholic fasting I grew up with, so I'm sure he would love a homemade treat!
Oh yes, my Orthodox friends have such a crazy feast on Pascha it makes me wonder if the fast is worth it. Such a cool picture and rhythm to the calendar.
