    Are you sure your mom is not a Russian? Check this as a precaution :)
    but seriously ... I think people avoid to cook beet because it is boiled too much time. It's necessary to spend much gas or electricity.

    And I have to write a few words about this product. If you don't know about it you don't know Russia.

    Ladies and gentlemen! It's salo... This is the most famous product of the Slavs. What is it, you ask me? It's fat of a pig. You could name it lard, tallow, etc... But you name this food of gods this way if you didn't ever try real Russian salo only...

    Salo must be raw one. You have to salt and plug it with spices and garlic, and freeze it. Next you put on your tongue a very slim slice of salo. This slice melts and disappears... You drink a very cold shot of vodka and fly to Heaven...

    The Russian humor.
    The name of this musical piece is "Old banjo". If you'll see a banjo there write me about please.

    The May Nine is a very important celebration in Russia. It's a Day of Victory over Fascist Europe. All Europe (Germany, Spain, Italy, Romania, Hungary, Austria, France, etc) attacked us. But we won.
    This day we together carry portraits of our parents that got this victory.

    The architecture is very distinctive. I love the decorative use of timber and different roof ones.

    At May 8 temperature in Omsk reached +30C(86F).Then it became rainy and cool to +12C(54). What do we do when it's hot?

    One day in Omsk.

    The morning. You could try the real pilaf. The price is about 4$.

    Then you could walk...

    Evening you could have a dinner in a restaurant like this
    [​IMG]
    The Thai salad. Because I lived in Korea and know their cousine, I am sure it's the Korean salad in reality :)

    The julienne...

    The pork with mushrooms....

    And the steak!

    Nice...it is very clean in Omsk, and it seem to have a certain charm that carries through the photographs.

    No. The dry climate is a feature of Siberia. Just now it's 39% only. Because of it we feel weather with temperature below -30C(-22FF) is warmer than -10C(+14F) in Europe. The hot we survive better too, but many of us have air conditionings.

    As I wrote before, when Russians went to the Siberian Nord, they mixed with Yakuts (Eskimos). As a result we got the people Sakhalars. They believe they are Russian but they have very interesting exterior, specially girls. They work as a models in the most famous fashion magazines of the World. Gentlemen just look at their eyes...
