It was the weirdest thing on Friday. We had such a snow storm that it was unbelievable. It started around noon and did not stop until just about next morning. Within hours my area was transformed into a winter wonderland. All the dirty leftover snow was covered with a beautiful white blanket, tree limbs had snow covers and it was just very, very nice all over.
They expected higher temperatures so they really didn't exert themselves with the effort of cleaning it up. Since I love snow I just really liked the whole scenery.
By the time we went out shopping on Saturday all that beautiful snow was gone. It all melted, roads were dry, it just puff disappeared. I guess the entrance of spring had something to do with it.
Saturday we did our usual supermarket shopping which is no small chore. Carrying all the bags up from the car to the apartment puts our muscles to a real test.
But after the supermarket we went to dinner to a very nice restaurant where none of us have ever been to. It was touted as Azerbaijani but I think it was more Turkish. The place was packed by all kinds of people which meant to us that it must be good. We had to wait only about five minutes until we got a nice table.
Not knowing anything about this kind of food we ordered what we thought sounded good. So we had Falafel for appetizer, salmon steak and Kabideh kebab main courses, Turkish coffee after.
What is Kabideh kebab you ask? It is two-skewered ground meat with rice and other stuff. I really didn't want to know. It sounded good so I ordered and was not disappointed. Everything was very good. We even took some food home they gave us so much.
All in all it was a nice day.
