Tree Sampler Framed

I have had this sampler done for at least three years, and, knowing we're going to move, we're taking a lot of things to MolDeco to get framed.  This was one of them.  I think they did an awesome job!  The framing makes this blah sampler stunning.

Backgrounding

Just about all the work this time was done to the right of the peacock, working on the background.  At least some of it is getting done.

Hungary's Hellish Kitchen

We stopped at a market booth for lunch one day, and it was awful!  The service was slow and the food was cold and blech.  The name of the place, we found out later, was Hungary's Hell's Kitchen.  Evidently this was their Christmas booth.  It SO made me not want to go to their restaurant!

Royal Times

The people of Cluj publish a newspaper on National Day showing the return of the royals to Bucharest on the first National Day in 1918.  Good way to remember history!

Not So Joyful

I am on a really boring and dense stitch at the moment.  It's time consuming!

Crazy January Start #17: Blue And Gold Egg

This egg is going to look fabulous when it's done.  The problem is finding the time to finish it.

First Bazilika

We went to this restaurant at St. Stephen's square in Budapest twice.  The first time was really good.  The second time was awful and we both caught food poisoning.  The only difference seemed to be the staff.  I had a cappucino to warm me up, and we both had goulash.  I also had a steak and egg thing while Andreas had chicken paprikash.  His was better.
