Just Middling

While I am ready for this side to be done, the stitching isn't.  I will try to work on it more .... after all, it did get on my Christmas rotation and stay there.


Real German Food

 On our second night in Munich, we stopped in at an (expensive) place downtown for dinner.  It was between the Residenz and City Hall, and I've forgotten its name.  I had pumpkin soup and sauerbraten, and Andreas had a pork dish with spaetzle.  It was very good and filling, too.  I even liked the bread dumpling!

Pretty Plate!

 Sasha G. and his wife Julia gave us this lovely plate for Christmas.  I just adore the etching on it!  Thank you!


All Blinged Our

I finally finished the first of my eggs from The Needle House!  It cam out really well, and it's even three dimensional looking, although you can't tell in the picture.  Anyway, I'm pleased and Andreas wants to keep it.

LaPlacinte Again

 The Friday before we left for Munich, we tried to go to Jack's Steakhouse, but it was reservations only.  Then we tried to go to Pizza Caruso, but they had a private party renting the whole restaurant.  So, the night before the bazaar, we ended up at LaPlacinte.  Andreas had his usual compot, and we shared a placinte that was pretty good.  Mamaligia and a chicken dinner rounded out the meal.  It's like Denny's, but Moldovan and cheaper.

Only The White

All that's left on this is filling in the white background.  Yay!

Squared Up

 I made my Dickens Christmas ornament into an ornament!  I just did a simple pillow style and I think it came out looking pretty good.
