A Capital Meal

Mom and I ate at Capital Grille during restaurant week in Fort Worth.  The food was very good, and I got a bit of steak sustenance.  Mom had salmon, which she liked.  We also did a flight of American wines.  They were not quite as good as Moldovan ones.

Second Started

I'm about halfway done and the second mushroom is started.  I think the first one looks pretty good!

Lunch At Blue Mesa

 Mom and I went to lunch at Blue Mesa Grill on Wednesday.  I had fajitas because I wanted them, even though they were huge.  Mom had a soup and salad.  I didn't like their chips - they were mainly sweet potato chips with very few corn chips in them.  The rest was very good.  For some reason, they serve the fajitas on a salt block that's been heated.

Blingy Barrette

This hand beaded barrette was found at Indian Market in Santa Fe a week ago.  It's all sparkly and pretty in my hair.  It even matches the kurtas I brought with me.

Butter-flying By

Still working on the background, a lot of it, and making one of the wings look full.

All Filled In

The inside of the diamond is all stitched now.  I won't be cutting until everything else is done.  Not sure I like this working from bottom to top.

Trashed

Lots of trash on the beach.  It's this way all over Angola.  Trash piles up and up and no one takes care of it.  There's not a single complete block in Luanda that doesn't have trash like this on it.  Depressing.
