I am really getting into Marc Almond's Russian cd, Heart on Snow. It is not new, it came out in 2003, and it is definitely, not new in style. But the appreciation for music I gained as a child from my parents definitely helps me here. Think Jacques Brel, only in Russian, and you can understand why Marc Almond was chosen for the project. I have a few of the songs in my head now. A few of the memorable lyrics.

"Galina dances under red stars
Throwing kisses to the dead Czars"
-Sleeping Beauty

"All we love is who we are
All we were is who we've loved
Just to love we pay a cost but
What was loved is never lost"
-Gone But Not Forgotten

For anyone intrigued enough to hear the old Russian songs, both in English and Russian, you can here them at the iTunes Music Store.

I burned tomorrow night's dinner. The broth had evaporated in the pan and I had thought that it wouldn't since the temperature was as low as it could go. Silly me. On the other hand, tonight's dinner went well. Baked Salmon with Feta and Red Pepper Sauce served with Greek Oven Roasted Potatoes and French Cut Green Beans with Almonds. Orange Cranberry Scones for dessert.

My paid account expired this weekend, but I am broke. I feel bad about it lapsing, but will pay again soon. Nothing has changed much though. Except for phone posting.

I have been wanting to do a phone post, but it seems no one listens, or maybe knows how. So I don't know what the point is of renewing, other than being good and supporting the folks that host my space.

We have a new houseguest. Friend of our roomie from Indiana. Having a fun time showing him around town, and sharing cooking knowledge and stuff. Might become our roomie later this summer if our current one moves out like the plan is so far.

Well, I have to go to bed now.
