I'm done with these four squares. I'll probably make them into ornaments. The colors were chosen for a color theory class I've been taking. At least they worked up somewhat quickly, but doing four of the same thing of anything at the same time is hard for me to do!

More Green Bits
I am almost done with the shutters and the trees are growing. I even got some of the peach plaster filled in.
Back To Buffalo
We went back to Buffalo Steakhouse last month. It will be our last visit for a while - they had a fire and flood, so are remodeling. While there, I had zeama (beautifully presented and no bones!) and Andreas had Greek salad. His iced tea looked more like iced tea than normal, and he says it tasted pretty close to sweet tea. I had a beef salad as my main course, and it was good - had more beef than most other beef salads in the area. I still wish they served other than mayonnaise or oil and vinegar for salad dressing around here, though! Andreas had a burger. This is his favorite place in Chisinau to get one.

Truly Complete!
Berkshire cottage is even ensconced in its magnet now. Go me, for actually getting it truly finished!
Ladies' Night At Pivnushka
August's Ladies' Night Our was at A-95 Pivnushka, a pretty big and nice restaurant I'd never been to. Actually, we'd passed the building numerous times and didn't know it was a restaurant because the entrance and signs and such are in the back, not on the main street. Anyway, I had a salad with real bacon on it! It's very hard to find real bacon here, and we normally import it. My main course was chicken and grilled apples. They were okay. The apples were better than the chicken. It was a bit dry. We were supposed to do karaoke, but we decided to talk for hours instead.

Asian Nights Home
Yay, my Asian nights blocks are home! Thank you to Pegsue, Rita, Sarma, Theresa, and Carol for making them look so fantastic! My husband especially likes the hand. I think it reminds him of Kung Fu Hustle.

So So Carlsburg Pub
The last place Corrin ate dinner at in Moldova was the Carlsburg Pub. It was nothing great. The food was mediocre - nothing stood out, but it wasn't bad enough to stand out that way, either. Andreas' Greek salad was, as you can see, a bit skimpy on Greekness. The pizza was not quite cardboard, and Andreas truly thought his spaghetti was just ... bland. Now that Corrin's gone, I doubt we'll be going back.
