Cute Baby Skeins

I got yarn!  These cute little skeins are perfect for temari.  When I saw the package at Michael's, I knew I had to have it.

Sherlock Pub - Gatlinburg, Tennessee

 This restaurant is tucked away in the back of one of the shopping alleys in Gatlinburg.  The staff is nice and they have Blackthorne on tap - the reason we went.  It was great to have some hard cider, but the food didn't live up to the rest.  The fried items were obviously from bags of frozen food service delivery.  There were no original touches to them.  That doesn't mean they were bad - they were meh.  The salad I had was the same way - prepackaged and opened onto the plate.  This place could use a good cook to go with the friendly service!



Another House Done

One more building done over the stable.  Only one more between it and the middle town hall.

Bit More Hair

It's getting closer to being done.  Between the previous stitcher's markups on the chart and the close colors on this, it's a challenge to stitch.

Oil Derrick Earrings

Even though we bought these at the Ocean Star museum in Texas, I get compliments whenever I wear them.  As you can see from the tag, they weren't even expensive.

Handpainted Scarf

We bought this scarf at the embassy a couple of weeks ago.  I love the colors and the feel of it.

Working The Middle

The middle square's ready to be filled in.  Even working on the side strawberries.  Progress!
