That explains everything.

I had a link to the following photo on my gmail status today:

Alex sent it to me yesterday and it made me laugh over and over. So I put it up there. Oddly enough, it’s hosted by www.englishrussia.com and called “Drinking Donuts.”

Then today I received the following email from my mom:

hi mae – are those russian kids?? looks like you and pete! you both loved beer…
and where are the donuts?!
xoxo
mom

This definitely sheds some light on my brother and me…
