12/4/2010


205.  Needing mostly a trim but also wanting to experience a salon in Russia, I accompanied Sveta early in the morning to get a haircut.  There was no lengthy scalp massage or a hot menthol towel for my neck like in Taiwan, but my hairdresser met my needs in a timely matter. For the rest of the day, the cold weather and lack of money deterred our group from heading out. Instead, Sveta not being privy to her Russian recipes, showed us how to make one of our favorite foods: Palmeni. Similar to Ravioli but like many of their dishes, it is commonly served with mayonnaise or cmetana (sour cream). That night a few of us rocked out at the belated Thanksgiving themed LDS single ward’s dance. Let’s just say it was interesting.
