Random Russian Memories

Here are some nostalgic pics that I took during my recent trip to Russia:

Pelmini!! 

Vobla - Makes me throw up a little in my mouth just thinking about it

MAXIBON - enough said.

Random flavors of potatoe chips.   This is a picture of Shishkabab chips.  Other flavors that I couldn't find on my last day but can be found in Russia are:  Red & Black Caviar, Kholodets (if you don't know what this is, don't ask), Chicken, Pork, Krab

 

Here is shampoo with ferimones.  

"Uncle Sam's Cafe"  

These chocolates are called Родные Просторы.  Welch used to call them Kakashki if I remember correctly.

Random Pictures

These are pics from my iPhone that I took after having a "I should put that on a blog" moment.

The first picture, I took in Louisville, KY over the summer.  There were random firehouses (yes, actual firehouses) for sale all over the downtown area.  Does just owning a firehouse qualify me for the "hot fireman" stereotype?

  The next two pictures should be filed under WTF?! were you thinking when you came up with that product.  These are new wacked-out fruit snack products:

"Thank You" for shopping at "Giant Eagle"

Uhmm ... are you quoting someone or are these "snark marks" (in French: ؟ )

Last Exam - New Beginning

I just finished the last exam of my MBA experience and can now start doing the more important things in life that I've been postponing such as organizing my iTunes folder (importing album covers is freakishly enjoyable) and starting a blog. So let the fun begin ...

"Welcome to the 21st Century," said my blog

"Why thank you," I curtly replied. Blog can be so condescending sometimes. Bastard.
