for me it's chopped apricots and walnuts, too.......esp. the California ones........tangy..........finally made the KZ's understand the term tangy........you just bite down and make a grimace.....then they know you want tangy and not sweet.....looked the word up in the dictionary.......not there...........that's okay we undertand each other quite well by now........they think I'm funny and I think that they are understanding of my lack of Russian.... their faces actually light up when I come in so I guess I'm making some headway in Kazak-usa realations.........I've tried but the brain cells are just not there anymore...........when you've got two different words for the object of the predicate "on the table" and the subject "the table is brown"......I just gave up........just not enough brain cells to absorb it all at my age..........Russian is difficult........just ask Charlie D....who I think has done a wonderful job of learning English...........and I commend you, my friend..........
