Ah, forgot to write - I made an awesome cold soup. There was no recipe, the process went by intuition. Following phone recommendations from my aunt Eugénie I put canned beets in there. Interestingly, expensive beets are tastier and prettier than cheap ones. I also added fresh cucumbers, dill, onions, eggs, sausage, potatoes, radishes, and other unknown greens. Poured kefir over everything and tossed in elbow bones of ice. Ended up with a pretty massive pot. And it was so devilishly delicious that by evening we had already eaten it all.
