We've been looking around for traditional Russian recipies we might try tomorrow night, to observe the Orthodox celebration of Christmas, to keep in touch with the kids' heritage. One thing we'll make is Kutya, and also mushroom soup, and some of the other things on that list. I got the wheat at the store last night, so we'll soak that overnight tonight. I wonder how this is going to taste, with pretty much just wheat, poppy seeds, and honey as ingredients.

(For an explanation of why the Orthodox celebration is a different date than December 25, see here.)
