I am really fond of hearing Russian spoken(I wish I could speak it).I've been reading about the foods and of course I love Russian tea and Kvass(Fermented Rye bread beverage Non alcoholic) and If I ever find a nice Russian girl who's not a mail order or connected to the mob,I'm gonna marry her ooohh yeah. I've never been to Russia,but I've seen pictures of the forests,Beautiful I must say.They remind me a lot of my native Michigan in some respects.I am fascinated by the peasant culture and art.I think they got robbed by the communists of having a rich wonderful cultural heritage. But ,what was before all that time is still wonderfully rich.I'm fascinated with the Czars and I know a Russian Orthodox priest and kinda dig on the Orthodox religion a bit too.So anybody else into Russian culture or any and all things Russian.Pull a chair up to the Samovar and enlighten me .
