Yesterday we found the most awesome Russian grocery store in Auburn.
They've got everything, I mean EVERYTHING!!!!
Years ago, I went to a smaller scale store, and the food was questionable. Some stuff was clearly expired.
NOT THIS STORE! IT'S THE BEST!

When shopping in the chocolate candy isle, a dedushka (grandpa) and babushka (grandma) started talking to me in Russian, not even questioning whether or not I could speak their language. I was in their land now. I felt like I stepped right into Russia. IT WAS AWESOME!!! (And I am embarrassed to say that I couldn't understand half of what they were saying. oh my!)
Tomorrow, a few families in church are gathering for a little Russian potluck (4 of us served missions in Russia). It's going to be OTLEECHNAH!
P.S. Yesterday, Elena ate laundry detergent. Don't worry, she's ok... now...
