This morning while walking with Sam to work in the rain we were trying to find an entrance to the skywalk which is closer to our house, and taking a turn on w 14th street, we passed by this:

And if you read Russian, you will understand why I got so excited. So this afternoon, after I came back from the Mall of America, I decided to check the Russian pharmacy out!

And I can’t explain how happy I was to discover that they don’t only carry meds, but Russian chocolate, canned fish (shproty and seledka), a lot of herbs that I use for making tea, essential oils, tar soap(!), Russian toothpaste and shampoos

Of course everything is ridiculously overpriced But at least the owner is nice and speaks English, which is perfect for Sam, because the store in St. Louis park is not very English-speakers friendly!

The other highlight of my day was going to the Mall of America with Kara, and even though schmucks from the Apple store didn’t want to give me a new charger for my Mac for free (I have one word for you and it’s not blog appropriate!), so much for getting Apple Care, we were able to get her a stunning bridesmaids dress from Macy’s!

What made your day today?
