And about the handwriting. It's just sad. When I was a kid my dad fixed a dude's roof. He couldn't pay so offered to teach me. Russian! I learned Russian and Russian cursive before I was 9. I could have a very basic conversation and read basic Russian. I'm sad that it is all gone now. But at the time he said Russians didn't learn cursive any longer and that would have been the 80s.
That is one hell of a trade. Teaching and learning a Language is a life long change even if you forget most of it. It lets you think .. in different and more complex ways.
Hah. Looked at again. I missed it when I skimmed it the first time. You actually list grams too. Not many people do that.
I will never forget 'Russian Cookies' and how much I enjoyed learning it. Looking back I know he enjoyed teaching me because I was a lone kid who was willing to learn. He made it fun and did all kinds of things like having me draw things I wanted translated. I wish I remembered more. Randomly I can sound things out which shocks me.
People enjoy passing down their recipes and traditions. Going to have to convince someone in my life to post some recipes here or write them down for me. You would probably like them.
I prefer grams for cooking :)
