A PERSONAL NOTE

 

Good morning, my friends! I hope you've had a fantastic week! I wanted
to drop you a note and tell you what I've been up to.

I was able to get to the beach on the one moderately sunny day we've had
since I have been in Varna. This weather has been such a bummer!

The Black Sea is not, in fact, black. The name was derived from a system
of color symbolism representing the cardinal directions, with black or
dark for north, red for south, white for west, and green or light blue
for east. So... "Black Sea" simply meant "Northern Sea".

It has been a busy and prosperous shipping route since ancient times,
and still is today. It was a naval theatre in WW1 and the site of
military action again in 2022 in the conflict between Ukraine and
Russia.

I spent part of the day at Varna Beach one day last week, enjoying the
smell of the sea air (it reminded me of the beaches in Florida) and the
music of the waves. It was a chilly 65 degrees so I only waded in up to
my ankles, just to say I'd done it. I was mostly by myself due to it not
being "beach weather," so I sat on the beach for a few very peaceful
hours and read a book. And incidentally - the insides of most of the
seashells are a lovely purple color.

I visited the large, gold-domed church called the Dormition of the
Mother of God Cathedral. The picture seen here was the most popular of
the ones I posted on social media. It is filled with elaborate frescos
and art. It doesn't have quite as much gold and alabaster of the
cathedral in Sofia but I think the art itself is more interesting.

To see more pictures of the Black Sea and the cathedral, go to my travel
Instagram here <[link removed]>. You don't
need an account to look at the photos. Look for arrows on the sides of
the pictures to scroll through and see the entire series.

These little coffee and latte machines are all over the place in
Bulgaria. I don't recall seeing anything like them except for at
hospitals back home. Here you can find them in all sorts of random
places. By the bank. On a sidewalk in a residential neighborhood. In the
park. They are very inexpensive - it's about 50 cents for a cup of black
coffee. Hey, there's always a need for coffee, right?

I was also able to get to the museum yesterday and will be posting
pictures of that on Instagram and Facebook. There's a really fascinating
history in this region, and it's where the oldest gold treasure in the
history of the world has been found. A cemetery dating back 6500 years
was unearthed and
the things discovered were magnificent.

On the prepper side, I've learned a few new recipes and agrarian eating
styles. Unlike Athens, you can't grow food year-round in Bulgaria.
People rely greatly on preserved chutneys and such for veggies with
traditional meals.

As well, they use a brined cheese that's a lot like feta with a lot of
meals. The nice thing about this cheese is that if you have a proper
storage brine and a root cellar, it can be carefully stored for about a
year.

A meal I've eaten frequently since being here is a plate of fresh
veggies - tomato, cucumbers, roasted red peppers, onions, and grilled
pepperoncinis, with two large triangles of that cheese and fresh-baked
bread. It's sprinkled with a spice called sumac, which I'd liken to
ground coriander, and drizzled with olive oil. I'm a carnivore but it's
actually a very satisfying light dinner. As well, it would be fairly
easy to duplicate with your home-grown goodies and homemade bread!

I hope you have a lovely week ahead!
