So much HAPPINESS.
This is for my American Home peeps...

I just went into the little cafe next to the Russian gift shop downstairs for lunch, and pretty much stepped back into my host mom's kitchen. On the menus: piroshki, blini, vareniki, and pelmini. On the shelves: all the cookies and candies I love, including vaffli. Spoken behind the counter: Russian. Playing on the TV in the corner: VINNIE PUKH!!! So I sat, ate my pelmini with dill and mayonnaise (the good Russian kind), and watched the episode with Ee-yah's birthday. It was one of the happiest 20 minute periods I've had since I've been back.

And just to make you all more jealous, guess what they have for dessert: chocolate sirok!

Aaaaaaaah oh my god, yes I am totally jealous! There's a Russian grocery store somewhere in Philly, I definitely plan to track that down...but somehow even so I don't think it's going to be nearly as happy as your little cafe. Oh man. Go there again, for me, ok?

It's pretty ridiculously happy. I plan to support it...a lot.
