Buckwheat Is Just O-Tay!


The first night for supper I was told we would be having buckwheat.

"Do you know what buckwheat is?" I was asked.

"Not really," I replied. My mind conjured up an image from my youth, but it didn't have anything to do with grains.

Ukrainian food is a bland compared to American food and almost tasteless to Indian standards. But I found that with plenty of salt, cabbage it's not bad. Not great, just O-Tay.
