Great Big Friendship


The fourth part of the heart is done ... now on to the fifth.

Wallets!

Yet more "the movers didn't pack up quick enough" shopping - two leather wallets.  They're beautiful quality and hold up really well.  We've bought from this guy at the feria before.




Raffi's

 Yes, real Armenian food in Uruguay!  There's a fairly significant Armenian community in Montevideo, and there are restaurants dotted around the city.  One of  the best is Raffi's.  Here's a picture of some of what we ate during our last week in Uruguay.  Andreas had the cabbage rolls; I had the mixed shish.  They were good, if very mild.

Tiny Temari

This is the smallest temari I've ever made - it's less than two inches in diameter.  I used Wildflowers cotton on it, and think it came out pretty well.



Ready to Travel

Mattie looks surprisingly chipper on her last day in Montevideo.  She's made it here, but I think she wants to go back.  It's far, far too hot for her here.

Sushi and Parilla...

A picture taken solely for the amusement factor ... on San Jose in Montevideo.

Yet Another Temari

I taught this pattern too, and gave the results to Mary.  I think it came out pretty well.
