Who knew?
Since I've been away from the US they've stopped making my foundation, mascara, eyebrow gel, lipstick color, saline solution, bras, underwear, stockings and loads of other things I'm forgetting right now. My apologies to all of you who are suffering lack of supply because I wasn't there to do my part as a demading consumer.
At least creamy Jiff is still available. Thanks for picking up the slack. ;>

I'm glad you stopped by! This blog chronicles my experiences living in and adopting from Russia. It was a six-year journey that doubled the size of my family. I adopted my daughter, then age 6, from Moskovskaya Oblast. Now we're back in the USA and no longer posting from Russia.

Whatever will happen if they stop making your beloved toothpaste?
i HATE when they quit making the bra style i wear. grrrr. same with underwear. i feel like i must buy 20 pair when i find a kind i like - just in case i can never find it again.
i'm sorry for all your losses....
hang in.
rachael, we don't even JOKE about that! good thing i'm okay for awhile...
votemom, i stock up, too. I just don't stock up ENOUGH, it seems. hanging. clinging.
Don't you hate that! Ugh. I still miss frozen chocolate jello pudding pops! LOL I haven't seen those since I was a kid.
yep... hate when happens..
God help me should they ever stop making Aveda Firmata... they already stopped making my fav lipstick shade... its dang hard to find the perfect shade of pinky browny mauve for a fair & freckled girl
hang in there
Kate...how long have you been gone now!!! jeez...
I can totally relate to the 'unmentionables'...hate that the most!!!
Now I know who to blame! Please tell me your not a fan of double stuff 0reo cookies. I'm tellin' you if they stop making those divine things, I'm in trouble! ;)
that is just so sad!!
does sephora deliver to St. Pete? If so you should definitely go to town on that site and find some new faves. It's dangerous though... I used to be so loyal, but because of sephora I'm constantly trying the new better improved faster lighter whatever beauty product!
Do you need all these things for the hot date you aren't telling us about????
Kate, that is so depressing. Give me a list and I'll search for these items. They have to be somewhere!
Kate, I know how frustrating that is! During my 5.5 years overseas, they stopped making many things I really liked. I hate to tell you this, but my toothpaste (Arm & Hammer *gel*, I've forgotten all the other specifics of it). I kept thinking maybe they just stopped carrying my stuff on base, but when I moved back, nobody else had it either. Argh.
I've adapted, though. Arm & Hammer toothpaste isn't really all that different from the gel, lol!
Oops, that was supposed to say, "my toothpaste...was one of them."
I can't find anything here. I am having to order through Amazon stuff I used to buy at Target.
I hate when you finally find your perfect makeup color or product and then they discontinue it. It drives me crazy!
