Clockwork Bird Done

So much backstitching on this bird, but it came out pretty neat. Definitely a keeper.

Life Changers

On August 10th last year, I took Grayson on a walk. A tiny black and white blur came barreling toward us, from nearly 200 meters away. I thought surely there would be an owner coming after. There wasn't. She ran right to Grayson and he comforted her. I picked her up and we went back home. Gave the tiny puppy to Andreas and continued our walk. About halfway through, one of the neighbor kids told me of her brother under a hedge. Grayson got the brother out and comforted him, too. We walked back home with another puppy. We were sure we'd get them adopted, but Grayson latched on to the puppies like he was their father. Completely changed his behavior and became more responsible overnight, despite being only seven months old himself. So now we have four dogs. And two dog sitters.

Games

Target had a big game sale back in December. Here's some of what we bought.





On To The Body

The owl is getting a body and feathers. I like how this is looking, and so does Andreas. He is the one this is for.

Three Calamari Heads

Three heads means this square is more than halfway done. Yay! Now to get it more spun on the generator.

Saranda Chicken

Garlic chicken is a national dish of Kosovo. This restaurant, Saranda, evidently invented it. There are many garlic chicken restaurants in Kosovo (and not in any of the surrounding countries), and I agree that this is one of the best. At these restaurants, it's only garlic chicken and sides....
