    The soup turned out khoroshyj (Good). If you can get it,I would try some Russian sausage in it,but if that is not possible,I think Kielbasa would be alright for the sake of your pocket book.a little fresh Dill and some Sour Cream would not hurt either. I need a name for it now.

Poka !!
    Well, hopefully your future bride will be an excellent cook. Of course, that would raise your standards, as now you would a need non-mail-order bride non-mafia cook. If you have any other standards, you'd better speak up soon before too many women start beating down your door!

We were always making fun of the communists back in the 70's and 80's when I was growing up and I am wondering what modern Russian culture is like? I know that is a broad unclear question,but ....well maybe for starters,tell me a little about where you live?? Is it rural or city.Are the people friendly or backward old school communist country folk ? What do you do for fun?I assume you are a wet shaver since your here?What blades and stuff do you like??I'm not sure where or how to get this ball rolling so I am open.And for the heck of it.How are the Russian ladies over there?? I sure would like to believe that not all are mail order mob girls??

    WhaFa? Denver has an outstanding Russian community. Sure there are bad apples everywhere..But the norm is that they are hard working folks who actually contribute the US. There have been droves that have been joining the military to pay back a coutry that has given them a new start..There has been multple distiguished acts by these young soldiers. ..It is more common to run into a 'vitch or 'ov than a Smith in the military these days. I say welcome them with open arms! Don't believe the hype out there..If you go by that mantra, then all italians are mobsters and mexicans are gang members..

    You misunderstand sir.....I don't go by Mantras,I listen and observe.The few people I know both Russian and American who know the Russian community well here in Denver have warned me about certain areas only located here that I should watch out for.That was not meant to be a blanket statement.And if a Russian tells me where not to go as far as where other Russians go that would be considered not so savory or for that matter what to watch out for period,I will heed that advice as they would know better than I. If you wanna go willy nilly into a world you don't know about,then be my guest.And let me stress again,that this is told to me by real live Russians not just some dude off the street. And the Russians I do know and am starting to know,I like a lot !

    Well then you are no in a hurry yet sir. We have a lot of Russian tourists here. Most couples i've seen husband always seems to be a bit older, looking like some Brando the Godfather, while their wives must be about 25 or so.
