St. Urho' s day
To all my Finns...especially those from MN, Happy St. Urho's Day!!! In honor of my Finish grandmother I ate a pasty my aunt made. My grandma used to make these every time we visited Northern Minnesota. A pasty is similar to a pot pie minus the gravy, and in the shape of a calzone. It has a mixture of carrots, potatoes, meat...and coming from my Aunt Cherie and Uncle Boo it may very well be venison, other spices, and wrapped in dough. Major comfort food. Granted it is not specifically Finish like kalamojakka, but its the best I can do for now.
