Just About Halfway

This is almost halfway done with outlining the tubes.  I have another pass or so before I start filling more in on the plane on Tuesday.

Night At Carpe Diem

While getting ready to leave Moldova, we decided we needed to taste new wines to bring with us to Angola.  Enter Carpe Diem.  The wine bar is very small - our table took up the entire space - but very stocked with Moldovan wine from small wineries.  We, along with ten of our friends, enjoyed an evening of wine tasting and delicious food.  We also ended up buying several bottles to take with us.

Framed Falcon

I call this particular kind of frame the Lego frame because of the symmetric bumps.  It works well for the Millenium Falcon, don't you think?

Done Early

With all the chaos in my life now with the move, it's nice to know I'm done with August's flower.  Won't start September until I'm in the US and done with the air flight.

Torro-fied

The food is always good at Torro, even when you try a new steak like I did.  It was beautiful and fresh with all the arugula.

Most Beautiful Scarf

This wondrous hand painted scarf was given me by my friend Ana.  She commissioned it from her cousin, who is a master artist in northern Moldova.  The pattern is adapted from old tiles.  I absolutely love it.  The colors are vibrant and the silk glides through my fingers and it's just gorgeous.  Thank you so very much, Ana!

Getting The Rules Down

More and more rules keep popping up.  Soon it'll b done.
