Khayrli Presidentlerden olsun! Хаырлы Пресидентлерден олсун!

Early this morning, I came downstairs bursting with news about the presidential elections, so Shevqiye decided to make her famous apple pie to celebrate. The sun came out in Backhchisaray, and we clinked our black tea glasses for the new U.S. president.  I learned to say "May the President be successful" in Tatar. I would have been dancing in the streets outside the White House, but this was a pretty good way to celebrate too.
