Medieval Castle

This is the castle where the medieval festival was held.  It was pretty and fairly small.  Beautiful day to explore, too.

Stitch Maynia #20 - Cloitre et Ecoincons

This bookmark is from France; I bought it during one of my trips there.  It should be pretty easy to work up. The picture is of a cloister and its environs.

Medieval Festival Food

Germany does festival food differently, of course.  On May Day, we went to a festival at a castle not far from Frankfurt.  It was a beautiful day, and we had lunch there.  Andreas had cheesy spaetzle and I had flammekuchen. Both were delicious.  They even had a whiskey stall selling Glengoyne.

Stitch Maynia #19 - Cabana Beach


Another Mill Hill kit, this one of a summer beach scene.  It doesn't seem too big...

Thai Food In France

We went visiting in Strasbourg (about a two hour drive from Frankfurt) and had a good time catching up with old friends. While there, we found a wonderful Thai restaurant and had lunch.  There was a reason the restaurant was packed - the food was both delicious and authentic.

Stitch Maynia #18 - Owl Trio

More owls for stitch maynia.  I have let this go longer than May because I was sick during May and still have more to do!

Five Guys Frankfurt

We went with Dima to Five Guys because why not?  Burgers were huge but dry. Fries were floppy.  Andreas enoyed his shake, though.
