Scotch Stew by Melita Glavin: Make Stuff May #17

This piece was in Needlepointers and looked like a bit of easy fun, so I started.

 

Sapphire Snow by Mill Hill: Make Stuff May #16

Another little quickie ornament to work on. I hope to get some of these things finished.
 

Inside Sarcophagi

Some of the grave goods in Bacoli Castle are actual graves. These sarcophagi once had dead people resting in them. It's amazing that they're well decorated on the inside too.

 

Reflections on a Grecian Urn: Make Stuff May #15

Another Ink Circles start. The fabric isn't as green as in the photo, else I would be starting it over. It's much more an antique gold. Hope to get more done soon.

 

Italian In Greece

After a while, you get tired of the same food - even Greek. We opted for pizza on a terrace one night in Athens. It wasn't a mistake to do so.

 

The Rouga

We were recommended this restaurant by one of our tour guides in Thessaloniki. He was right. It was one of the best meals I had last year. And the wait staff was great, too. 

 

It's TGIFriday

There is a TGI Friday's on Aristotileus Square in Thessaloniki. When we went to Thess, we visited about three times. It was two blocks from the apartment; it was different from anything we could get at home; and we missed American food. Andreas started with mac and cheese. We both had non-Balkan burgers!
