    Marija, ja redovno citam tvoj blog, evo, oko 2 godine i zaista mi se svidja tvoj pristup receptima i fotografiji. Fotke su ti predivne! Ja zivim u Kaliforniji, ali svako leto provodim u Cacku. Beograd je moj grad od studija, i neizmerno sam srecna sto se u njemu mogu naci sastojci neophodni za recepte sa drugih meridijana (bar ih ti nalazis:)

    These look delicious! Can't make them until my recently planted tomato plants start turning out lucious, ripe tomatoes the perfect size for stuffing. I'm so excited about finding this blog, I've never made any Serbian food.

    Wow, I so love recipes with tomatoes. I especially love the red and plump ones. I am so blessed to have found someone like you who really knows how to spice tomatoes up. My kids will surely love it. If I can do it as you did. Great thanks.

    Stuffed tomatoes is one of my favorite dishes. Somehow they manage to be fresh, comforting, and incredibly flavorful without being too heavy. Beautiful!
