Possum Start

The possum is well started now. I'm almost halfway done, yay! I think this will look pretty cute.

Carpaccio And Butter

Not sure why they served butter with the carpaccio; I skipped it. The rest was very good.

Done

This gift has now been delivered, as I finished it into the hoop just before going to Naples.

Four Eyes

Some of the sixth square is started, but the major work is still on the fifth. Just about done with it, too.

Hotel Restaurant - Grissini

While in Cologne, we stayed at the Hyatt Regency. I had a lot of points, so we used them for reduced rates and for access to the executive lounge. One of the very rainy days we decided to eat at one of the hotel restaurants, Grissini. The restaurant was a true disappointment. The meat and cheese tray looked nothing like its photo, and the rest of the food was bland, overcooked, and our dishes tasted the same.  Even with completely different meats, our sauces were the same. That's lame.

Lots Of Body

This is maybe halfway done at this point. Most of the bird is done, but there's a branch and a couple of leaves to make.

Belling Along

Three bells done on the second corner, but there are still ribbons and pine boughs to do.
