How Old Is Your Blog and How Often Do You Write It?

I started my blog in June 2006, it is 4 years old. I try to update it once a month at least, but when it started I was updating it daily.

I also track comments and answer the questions at least once a week.

Why Do You Write About Eastern European Food?

I am Russian myself and I feel passionate about Russian cuisine. When I moved to the U.S., I couldn't find any Russian food stores or restaurants, so eventually I decided to create a resource to help others find them.

Tips and Tricks

  • I definitely test all the recipes that I post on my website. Most of them are my family recipes that have been tested out by generations of my ancestors.

Zein, the author of this blog, is Russian who writes his blog in English. He has a great post on kolbasa, the generic word for "sausage."
