"MOSCOW, July 6 -- First lady Michelle Obama arrived here Monday afternoon to an audience more intrigued by and enamored of her gardening skills than of anything else on her résumé. If she effected any kind of charm offensive leading up to this official visit -- at least one with a message that seems to have resonated down to the streets of this city filled with grand czarist architecture -- it has been one based on lettuce and compost."
