This dog was picked up in July 1883 by sailors from the cruiser Africa in the port of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. Returning from a long voyage from the Pacific Ocean, the sailors presented the Kamchatka Laika to Emperor Alexander III. They named the dog Kamchatka.

In general, I adore Solyanka-style soups (“Salted Soup”)! Their single downside – they are lacking in complex carbs the likes of barley or buckwheat, but you can always have them as a side dish.

I Felt it First in Russian Speaking Community in the US. The drastic increase in hatred: political hatred that quickly became personal. Since 2014, the community became split.

Some bastards lost the US presidential election. Others won it. The peoples of the world – their food – watched this process, like the heroes of “Jurassic Park” watch a fight between dinosaurs, where both sides are representatives of the fauna hostile to us.
