Picture it: Vranesti, Moldova, the 1990s. Sisters Uliana Komodi and Christina Sava were busy living an idyllic childhood in this small Eastern European country between Ukraine and Romania. Komodi and Sava were taught to work hard in school and helped their mom with any assigned task, but Sunday was always the day of rest. Theyâd sit with family and friends on the porch and share a watermelon, drink tea with bread and Feta cheese or run around the yard with spoonfuls of honey. The sisters would spend their summers in the mountains at their grandparentsâ house. Mornings were for picking berries and flowers, and after an evening spent at the river, theyâd come home to eat their grandmotherâs potatoes with lardons and dill.
