Small Town Connecticut Food

 We met friends on our drive back to Massachusetts from New York.  It was lunch time, so that's what we did.  They each had these delicious looking salads, and we had pizza.  I'm sorry I don't remember the name of the place, but it was several miles off the interstate north of Hartford.

Inspired In A Group

This ball is only halfway done; it's the one i'm using to teach my students.  I was inspired to teach this one to them as their third ball to practice wraps and start on spindles.  The original design was posted as a temari by someone on the Talk Temari Yahoo group.  I hope to complete it this week.

Zoo Birds

I'm not a bird fan, but Andreas is, and they photograph well.  Overall, even outside of the terrorizing toddlers, I was disappointed with the Central Park Zoo.  It's definitely not worth the $12 admission, and takes less than half an hour to see all the exhibits.  I remember when it was free.... and had different animals.

More Green, More Peach

Greens and peaches around the lower window.  Some day this will get done.

Quartering Up

There is just a little bit to work on for the third corner.  Maybe two sessions? and it'll be ready to move to the last one.

Hidden Animals

We weren't the only ones annoyed by the screeching, screaming, peripatetic toddlers.  Most of the animals were hiding, too.  The penguins were behind soundproof plexiglas, so they just were ignorant of the kidlets.

Squaring Up

The trifle below the square is started, and I've got the majority of the square done.  This is going to have a -lot- of beading to do!
