Chapter Project

I kind of do a service for my EGA chapter where I find small free designs and interpret them, with photos, step by step.  The January meeting project is Geometric II by Northern Pine designs.  It's a fairly simple canvaswork project.  Of course, I changed the colors.  Here's part of it done.

Buffalo And Friends

 Buffalo Steakhouse's mojito is almost as good as El Greco's, but it's smaller and the same price.  Anyway, I tried one when we went to dinner with friends a couple of weeks ago.  Andreas had tea in their beautiful presentation, along with the Greek salad and a hamburger.  I had a very good steak and some zeama.  The dessert is Heather's chocolate volcano.  It was good!  Actually, it was all good, and Buffalo's meat cooking skills are improving.  The steaks were more tender and flavorful than in the past.

Half The White

Half the background done; getting there.

Second Side

I've gotten most of the second side of the border done and am now working on the third too.


Best Greek Food In Town

 Not only the best Greek food, the best mojitos too!  We went to El Greco at the beginning of the month, and the food was even better than the last time.  The pitas were hot and buttery, the tzaziki fresh and thick, and the gyro great except for the french fries.  I just don't like french fries in mine!

German Stash

I found these table runner kits for half price at Karstadt.  The thread was also bought there. It was hard to find things in the crafty area at a decent price in Germany!

Both Sides Now

I've made a good start on the second side of Fandangle.
