Night Snow Scenes in Moscow

 Here are some night snow scenes in Moscow from about a week ago.

 Same evening as the above pictures had this late lunch at Brothers Karavaev delicatessen cafe here in Moscow, Savelovsky Train Terminal area, in case anybody is interested.

A duck, orange and walnut salad, Pozharsky cutlet with mashed potatoes and some cheese thing.

Soapbox photos: Frog and Bullfinches

New Shoes

 New shoes are in and already being broken in.

A pair of double monks in cafe suede.

Will be versatile, as double monks are in general, and especially in brown suede, so can wear them with basically everything from a business suit down even to shorts maybe in summer.

Though by one of the lesser manufacturers which I won't mention here by name because they didn't pay me and I don't advertise anything, especially for free, these shoes are goodyear welted and Dainite soled.

Claims, they're even hand made
