my heart goes out to her with her beloved Ukraine…her family and friends there…such a tragedy. I along w friends purchased her cookbook and have made many recipes each making and meeting to taste her food. We love her presentation and recipes. And are looking forward to a new book she is presently working on. God bless you Anna!
