Squirrel!

This squirrel taunts Grayson all the time.

 

The Rest of the Haul

This is the rest of the pottery we bought in Boleslawiec last October. Some new patterns, some old.

 

The Warsaw Mermaid

Warsaw has a mermaid as its patron. This was from a story long ago when mermaids from the river came to save it. This statue is in the Rynek, the Old Town Square. The mermaid's face is based on a woman who died in the Warsaw Uprising. Oh, and yes, it's an ice rink around it. This photo was taken in January.

 

Yes, Even More Pottery

We were going near Boleslawiec on our long road trip, so Andreas decided we had to stop. At least we had some room in the car...

 

More Pottery

Of course Andreas insisted on stopping in Boleslawiec during our long road trip last autumn. And, of course, we bought lots more pottery.

 

Chocolate Explosion

Members of the DnD group brought over chocolate for eating during the session. We didn't eat it then, but have since. Thank you!

 

Flowers from Leonora

Leonora got me these beautiful flowers for my birthday. I love them.

 

Gnomely

Andreas and Leonora have developed a game of hide the gnome during the holidays. This gnome was added this year. It only was hidden a couple of times before Leonora left. But now it's hidden again. My home is overrun with gnomes at Christmas.

 

Tour Gift

Our gift for going on the food tour in September. She had forgotten it at the time so dropped it at the embassy.

 

Wroclaw Drawing

We bought this while in Wroclaw in October. It's of a church there. I liked it and we don't have much in the way of Polish art.

 

I Like Nalesniki

... which are Polish crepes. Lunch on one of our stops on our road trip. It was great.

 

Earrings from Krakow

Both enameled and fused glass earrings from Krakow. I like them.
