Friday

Tradition Greek ?Easter soup - ?Mahgritza.
Well, there were little hearts, kidneys floating in it! This is like 55+ yrs ago.

But I loved my cousin, and didn't want to disappoint her.
The heart? Eh. But the kidneys - ick!

Luckily my mom never cooked liver. Yet I love liverwurst; guess the herbs & spices counter rhe natural 😄 ?questionable taste.

I'd never have raw fish sushi, nor oysters!

And be careful at a Puerto Rican restaurant!
You want Monfungo - mashed fried green plantains w olive oil, garlic and ? but not
Mondongo - cooked chopped up tripe w whatever!
Two wrong letters - you in trouble!
No, never happened to me.
