A Rainy Evening

We had a light dinner last month at a small place by the embassy.  My mojito was huge, and we split a meat and cheese platter.  I had Albanian stew.  Like almost every day in June and July, though, it rained.  Luckily we were under a glass roof, but it came down hard.  We have not been able to enjoy much outdoors this summer because of the rain.

Filling In The Lower

I have a good start on filling in the lower lobes now. Maybe they will go faster than the upper ones.

Leaves And Branches

This is finally beginning to look like something.  I have leaves and branches started for the border.  The other half of the border will get work next time.

Dinner At Old Gresa

There are two Gresa restaurants in Pristina.  They have the same owners and menus, and are about a block apart.  I don't know why there are two, but there are.  We went to eat on Big Bajram (Eid-al-Addha) in June, glad that at least Old Gresa was open.  We were a party of five and had a very good meal.  At the end, we had limoncello slushes, too!

Purple Graced

Yay, a finish!  It only took me a couple of days to do the right leaf.  I like how it turned out.

Bits More Blue

i am beginning the big middle of the sides design again, and working on filling in more maze, too.

Victoria and Albert

This crazy quilt was in the Great Britain after 1800 exhibit in the Victoria and Albert Museum.  My first day out of the hospital I went there for a quick trip before Andreas got to the hotel from Pristina.  I enjoyed a lunch outside near the fountain/pool, too.  I'd like to spend more time there at some point.
