Удорение
Yesterday, the lady at the bread stand corrected my Russian. I asked for a roll with печенью, and she responded "Печенью, печенью." ...Apparently, my stress was off.Also, apparently, печень means liver. Eventhough you may think it kind of sounds like the word печенье, which means cookie, and therefore order it expecting something at least a little sweet. They sound different and they taste different. Imagine that.
p.s. I have an address now! If you want to know it, let me know :)

Hey Becky,
It's great to hear about your trip! Isn't it fun ordering in a foreign language? I once ended up eating pig's knuckle in Austria. Thanks for dragging us into the next century ... I've never "blogged" before.
I want your address!! And you're doing beautifully.
