REMINDER: Today is International Dudnik Day!

February 22, 2011

Celebrate International Dudnik Day Today!

Just a quick reminder that today people all over the globe are celebrating Egypt’s new-found freedom by honoring the hero who started the revolution: Olessia Dudnik, the former Soviet star.

The most common celebratory ritual being performed by individuals everywhere is the eating of the Russian delicacy piroshki.  Dudnik started the entire revolution while protesting the freedom to eat piroshki in Egypt. A shipment of piroshki straight from Moscow has been delivered to the club that Dudnik coaches at in Cairo to honor her success.

I urge you to show your support of Dudnik today and go eat piroshki.  They’re delicious! I celebrated by going to the Pike Place Market in Seattle and getting a tasty piroshki from “Piroshky Piroshky” (spelling of “piroshky” varies).
