Centrality

This has the center done, finally.  It's time to work on getting the rest of the central diamond done.

Training Piece

I found this piece in the bottom of my computer bag after fearing it was lost.  During training, I stitched on it during breaks.  Made a lot of progress!

Another Day, Another Breakfast At Ol' South

At Ol' South you don't have to order from the breakfast menu for breakfast.  This resulted in our fried pickle order for breakfast one day.  It was good, served with ranch dressing!  I also had my usual dutch baby and Andreas had eggs and hash.  As usual, bacon was devoured.

Beflowered

Well, one flower's done.  This is the largest, so the others should be easier.

But For A Leaf

Everything but one leaf is done.  Yay!  It'll be finished soon.

Dinner With All The Parents At Reata

 
It was a dinner for five at Reata the first night Andreas' parents were in town.  Andreas had to try the dill pickle martini, and I had my usual margarita.  The dinner was good, but it was usual southern/Texas food with a few twists.  Everyone's food tasted good and was huge.  I had chicken fried steak and bourbon bacon corn.  The parents had a bunch of fish-type entrees.  Shared desserts. too.  Overall, a decent but overpriced meal.

Still Heading Away

The snout looks almost done as I get started on the rest of the skull.
