Matryoshka Marriage

The Matryoshka marriage bound with plush roses and spiced tulips. Bride’s xanthous babushka, face-crowned in Matryoshka marriage bound. The groom peacocks with lively sound - a bottle dance with skillful kicks. The Matryoshka marriage bound with plush roses and spiced tulips. 2/4/2022

What a small world this is, Kim. I taught English exclusively to adult refugees and asylees from the former Soviet Union for eight years, 1990 - 1998. If I had kept them, I would have well over 100 matryoshkas, all from some of the most appreciative students I have ever taught. Maybe if I had married them off, I could have ... Oh, never mind. lol. Thanks, Kim.
