Well Over the Hump

Much more than halfway through. A lot of my larger projects are simultaneously inching toward completion.

 

Big Rectangle Done

The whole of the big rectangle is done and the letters started. I've even begun some backstitching. On the home stretch of this finally. It will be done before the end of the year.

 

Bunker Living

I would not want to have lived in this place. It's so drab and just plain miserable. But, I guess, if you're trying to avoid a chemical or nuclear strike, it's the place to be.

Two and a Half Corners Closing

I have two and a half corners of this part done. There's a -lot- of beading and backstitching to do, but I -will- have this done before the end of the year. The border is not too complicated, and I will probably start beading while working on it.

 

Restaurant Week Warsaw - Magari

Warsaw has a version of restaurant week and we participated. You prebook your table and meal for about $30-40 each at one of about 40 restaurants, and go and enjoy. Meals are three courses plus a drink and sometimes an amuse bouche.
We liked the menu at Magari, a hotel restaurant downtown with a terrace, so we went. Andreas had the pasta and I had the steak. Mine came with peach soup! It was interesting. I am also going to have to do my watermelon with a balsamic glaze, because it was delicious. Everything was wonderful, and we will go back soon.









 

Hope is Hooped

This came out rather cute.

 

Antiquated Equipment - Bunk'Art 1

When this place was built in the late 1970's and early 1980's, the equipment was already obsolete. It was of Chinese manufacture with technology gotten from the Russians that was possibly stolen from the Americans. A lot of it looks WWII vintage.
