Irina's Bridal Shower

Vadim, I hope you don't get mad that I posted this cutout of your face on my blog. I couldn't resist. I never had more fun at a bridal shower in my life. I learned in Russian tradition that if you give someone a knife or something pointy, it's bad luck. So, when you request knife sets on a registry, you must give the knife-giver pennies. I think I must have been Russian in a past life.
