  In addition to any potential luggage problems, the connections can be
  bad.  We once changed planes there, landing at the very end of one
  terminal wing -- only to find out that our connecting flight was at
  the very end of the furtherest wing.  If it had not been for the
  motorized shuttle carts, we never would have made it in time.   After
  that, we swore never again would we change planes in Philly.

  Sounds like you need to add some thrift stores to you shopping
  tours:-}}   They often have perfectly decent shirts of all types that
  would meet your price range.   Never know what else you might pick up
  also -- cookbooks are rare, but sometimes you can score a decent one.

      Title: Pelmeni (Siberian Meat Stuffed Dumplings)
 Categories: Russian, Dumpling, Beef, Pork
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
           Dough:
      3 c  Flour
      1 ts Salt
      1    Egg; or
      2    Egg yolks
    2/3 c  Water; warm
           Stuffing:
    1/2 lb Ground beef
    1/2 lb Ground pork
      2 tb Water
      1 md Onion; finely chopped
      2 cl Garlic; minced
           Accompaniments:
           Sour cream
           Melted butter
           Vinegar
           Pepper
           Mustard
 
  These dumplings are the Russian version of ravioli, a kind of meaty
  pirogi.
  
  Making pelmeni begins with the preparation of the pastry. Sift flour
  into a mound in a bowl. Make a well in the centre and add salt, eggs,
  warm water and knead the dough with both hands until smooth and free
  of lumps. If dough is too sticky, add some more flour. Dough should
  form a firm ball. Cover it with a damp tea towel and leave to stand
  for 30-40 minutes.
  
  Meanwhile, make the meat filling. Combine beef, pork, onions, garlic
  and water in a bowl until thoroughly mixed.
  
  Roll the dough out thinly, cut out small circles and put a small ball
  of filling [1 heaping teaspoon] onto each. The edges are then joined
  and pinched together, forming half-moons. Use a little water brushed
  lightly on the edges to make them stick. Keep the finished pelmeni
  either on waxed paper or board sprinkled with flour.
  
  Cook a dozen at a time, uncovered, in plenty of rapidly boiling
  lightly salted water, about 10 minutes. Repeat until all pelmeni are
  cooked.
  
  Serve pelmeni either as a garnish in clear soup (beef or chicken
  broth) or as main course with mustard, pepper, vinegar, sour cream
  and/or melted butter.
