After getting back from church on Sunday, the director of the house here told me the basement was full of water and we needed to bail it out. I was thinking it was an emergency, but apparently the house we live at was built on top of a water hole so about every 3 days the basement gets about 5 inches deep in water. So I began bailing it out and dumping it into another area with a working sub-pump.
THIS IS ANDREI THE NEIGHBOR BOY WHO WATCHED ME BAIL OUT THE BASEMENT... IT STILL IS WEIRD TO ME THAT LITTLE CHILDREN SPEAK PERFECT RUSSIAN, I ALWAYS EXPECT TO HEAR ENGLISH AND THEN I'M ALWAYS SURPRISED... BUT THEY ARE CUTE.
After finishing bailing out the basement I was excited to find that (пель мени) Pel Meni were made for dinner. These are Russian dumplings filled with really yummy meat. Back in Juneau, Alaska they have a diner to eat these however they are Amercianized and nothing like the real thing. The real way is to put sour cream and mayonaise on them and I must say they are really good this way.
THAT'S RIGHT ALL YOU FAKE PEL MENI LOVERS IN ALASKA, THIS IS THE REAL DEAL!!! ALTHOUGH I MUST ADMIT BOTH WAYS REAL AND FAKE ARE BOTH VERY TASTY.
