Happy international women's day!
Всех женщин, девушек и девочек поздравляю с праздником, желаю вечного счастья, крепкого здоровья и слёз не от горя, а от радости! Дарю вам виртуальный букет тюльпанчиков:
it is popular to buy such flowers as tulips as the present for women in Russia
What do women in other countries often get for International Women’s day?
Fingers crossed everyone
Hey, if you are wandering how we russians put up with extremely cold winters and lots of snow, I can tell you!
It's the 22 of December, there's NO snow in Moscow, and it was much more colder in October than in this month.
Yeah, it's SoOoOo CoLd In RuSsIa
(I'm not talking about Siberia lol, they have all these, you know, 'winter' things)
Interested
Which towns (besides Moscow or Saint Petersburg) are associated with Russia among foreigners?
I hate being ill.
It feels like I'm useless and I can't do anything about this :(
NOODLES!!!
It cost me 41 RUB (0.62 USD, 0.51 GBP)

Drink while you eat
To be honest, I don't know how to translate it, because the russian language is so complicated...
Nevermind!
Packaging and general information
As you can see, It's a small packet with a lot of little things which look like pills. There were 3 flavours: strawberry, chocolate and ice cream (but in reality it's just vanilla). I decided to buy strawberry and vanilla.
Ingredients
These pills are supposed to replace normal milk (here's the meaning of the title). They are made of powdered milk, so you just eat them and at the same time you drink milk 🧐
The taste
The taste is the same as real milk, it's not so bitter sweet as I thought. However, sweetness appears as an aftertaste, and that makes you thirsty at some point.
Price
One packet costs ≈43 rubles (0.64 USD, 0.53 GBP)

windy days
Can't say that it has been really cold recently, but it has been windy.
Breezy, I would say.
In June it was quite hot, and everyone wanted rain. I don't know how, but mind is over matter, i guess, and in July it was raining soooo hard (btw i was afraid to go outside). And.... August. This month is neutral, the weather is okay, however i want it to be a little warmer.
I hope autumn will be much better in terms of the weather :)
Quick review
I need to mention that I am from Russia, and we don't have this type of ice cream.
BUT
I had eally wanted to taste this thing for soooo long. Few years ago I went to London and had an opportunity to TASTE THIS PRETTY NASTY BOI
no, I'm not crazy, please believe me
And you might ask me 'what's the point of this post?'
Apparently, I wanted to say that I liked that ice cream a lot, and I want to have it in my country
Like... Seriously, I'm in love with it
