Half a Building...
is better than none when you're trying to make progress. I'll have the rest of this building done next time. It's getting close to the edge, and I might be done with this section soon!
Pretty Windows
The neighborhood I live in, Punta Carretas, is full of Beaux Arts and Arts and Crafts style buildings. The one in these pictures is a former residence that's been turned into a used book store. We passed it one night, and got to see the beautiful faux stained glass windows all lit up.

For the Love of Cheese
There is no such thing as cheddar cheese in Uruguay. In fact, any sharp cheese is very difficult to get. Well... we've missed cheddar cheese and a friend of ours told us about Washington State University's cheese selling program. They make it themselves and send it in these cans. They're two pounds of cheese per can. We bought three. The taste is good and sharp and a bit of home here in Uruguay. I've been using it in Mexican food and chili and even some pot a feu.

Dragging Out the Last
One day soon, I'm going to be working on this and just go for finishing it. That day wasn't the last time I worked on it, though.
