We were hungry.
Living dangerously.
Trying that new Russian place.
So we took a chance.
I never dreamed it included ...
... a ptomaine and salmonella ...
... bellydance ...

Author's Note

Pete
“One farmer says to me, 'You cannot live on vegetable food solely, for it furnishes nothing to make bones with;' and so he religiously devotes a part of his day to supplying his system with the raw material of bones; walking all the while he talks behind his oxen, which, with vegetable-made bones, jerk him and his lumbering plow along in spite of every obstacle.” - Thoreau

Sometimes we hallucinate in real time
which makes for stimulating adventures.

Hunger comes in many varieties
demanding our attention when we least expect it.

Russian food is hearty, belly dancers make for
a fine side dish: eat up and enjoy.

Thank you, Pete!

in life...we find bountiful treasures...but only if we take the chance to search them out...
staying safe and within the lines...can really dull life.
