Lunch At Kompot

Yay! We are allowed to go to Ukraine now!  This meant that as soon as possible, we popped over the border to Odessa overnight.  When we got there, we had lunch at Kompot.  Kompot is one of our favorite places, and so I had the daily special.  It was three stuffed cabbage leaves with three different kinds of meat stuffings.  I was full after one and a half.  Andreas had the meatballs.  His used the same meats, but the sauce was different.  Anyway, they were great tasting on a chilly day.  For dessert we had one of my favorites- cherry ravioli.

To The Middle

The arch is the top middle of the piece.  That means progress!  So far, it's all make the outline then fill it in.  Filled in part of the lower area then made the outline of the arch.  At least it's a different color.

Au Revoir For Now

I am putting this away for a bit because I'm working on too many large projects at the moment.  I hope to pick it up again in a couple of months.  For now, I've got a good start and have learned a bit from working on it.

March On Georgia

We went to Tblisi restaurant with a large group of people in January.  Because we were a large group, we did a pre-ordered group menu.  The fresh everything was really good, and they have one of the best grilled meat bargains around.  

Topping It Off

I've decided from here on out to work top down.  This is the upper border in progress.  Maybe things will go faster this way?

St. George

I saw this kit and thought of Andreas' love of St. George, so I bought it.  I'll put it in my suitcase when I move, and will have a big project to work on while I wait for my stash.

Lots Of Blue

I started back up on Snowfall.  It's kind of slow going because paper is harder to cross stitch on than linen.  Ah well - it's time to get it done.  I do want to complete a bunch of small projects before we move.  That way I'll have fewer WIP's sitting at the dock in Luanda or Brussels for months.
