The mail order bride has lost all taste and smell to Corona.
I was WAY sicker than her and can taste and smell just fine.Weird friggin' virus.
Sorry BTW for introducing Corona to yet another thread.
So, after telling her that since she can't taste it anyway, I'd just make oat porridge for a month, I thought: She can't taste, but she can see.
So: Red beet "pesto" it is.
Beets, garlic, Greek feta cheese ( 75 grammes, ain't gonna frig with the no colesterol programme, much) capers, walnuts, olive oil and some spices.
Looked fantastic and tasted way better than I expected.
More like Tapenade than Pesto, but goooood.
Add a scredded carrot salad and you have most of the colors .
Today was a festive dinner on the occasion of my birthday. By tradition, it all started with a salad. The salad consisted of strawberries, beetroot, mango and Mozzarella cheese. It was all with mango sauce. Then there was fried fish. This is a unique fish. This fish in Russia is available only in St. Petersburg, and on the opposite edge of our vast country, in the city of Vladivostok. Fresh, this fish smells like fresh cucumbers. During the heat treatment process, this smell disappears. The fish is very fresh - caught this morning. There was a lot of caviar in each fish. Then there was black tea with mint and a unique carrot cake. Modestly, but with taste 
Dinner was held in a cozy restaurant with live music.
