Infant formula marketing; media coverage of Russia's war [View this email online]( [NPR]( Goats and Soda editor's note The samovar my grandmother's family brought from Kyiv. Marc Silver/NPR This is my keepsake from Kyiv. A samovar -- an urn used to heat water (with coals or charcoal or firewood in a basin at the bottom) to make tea.
