Luda and Milena, who battle over a widower in their English class with competing recipes for cheese puffs, spinach pies, and meatballs . . . and Sergey, who finds more comfort in the borscht made by a paid female companion than in her sexual ministrations.

A roundup of recipes are the final taste of this delicious collection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51735670718752,"sku":"NEW030727988X","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61n3G99m5iL_a1603975-23f5-4fca-948c-528170e97b6b.jpg?v=1779498323","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/broccoli-and-other-tales-of-food-and-love-030727988x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
