Back To Green Hills

 On a Saturday in late August, we had dinner at Green Hills Cafe on Stefan cel Mare again.  Andreas, being adventurous, had exactly what he had the previous time - Greek salad and schnitzel.  I had zeama and "tower salad".  It was - different.  I have no idea why a glob of mayonnaise is considered dressing here, but it is - and it's really not great.  The rest of the salad was pretty good, though.  Well, perhaps the large spray of dill could have been taken away.

Four Squares

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.
