"Blue and yellow"

I should have known that I would enjoy the Ukrainian Festival when I saw the colors of the country flag. Blue and yellow. My favorite colors.

I had never known that there was a Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Portland, now I do. There had been a posting in my mailroom for a Ukrainian Fall Festival. I thought it would be nice to go and add it to my "festival repertoire" for the year. While I was at the festival I heard this choir sing:

Serpanok Choir from Seattle

I saw these kids dancing!

Barvinok Dance Group

And, I saw beautiful artwork, including embroidery, wood carvings and these beautiful eggs.

More dancers:

They also had food, what is a festival without food? I treated myself to some cabbage rolls that were oh, so yummy!
