Airport Food

W got to Dulles Airport very early because of the check out time on our apartment.  Lunch was called for once the bags were checked and we''d passed through security.  Andreas had a Cuban sandwich and I had chicken fingers.  Not surprisingly, the food was unremarkable.

BirthdayFloss!

Aren't I lucky?  I received all this beautiful floss from the group at the Stitch Specialists on Yahoo.  They're gorgeous and so different! I'll be using them soon.  Thank you so much, ladies!

Promise Fulfilled

Before we left Uruguay, I promised Natalie I'd make her a scarf.  So I did!  It's in the mail to her as I write.  I hope she likes it this winter in New York.

Hit the Restart Button

I had to restart my Berlinwork Sampler because I started at the top originally.  When I decided to redo it, I also decided to put it over one.  Here's my progress over a week.

Spelling

I'm getting pretty close to being done with this.  I think I'll finish it into a pillow ornament and bead the edges when done.

Texas Roadhouse

Hey, I had to get one last order of fried pickles, right?  We went to Texas Roadhouse in Virginia with the Perez-Milams and here are the pictures of what was eaten.  It was a mistake to order chicken fried steak so far north.  Much more batter than meat.  The other food was good, though.





Not Quite to the Top

Working on the flowers before the final top border.  It'll be good to have all the dimensions done soon.
