I managed to hoop this up. Still hate the colors, but it's done and will go to someone who likes them.

At The Ball Park by Laura J. Perin - Work From Home #37
This looks like a Mexican blanket to me, in the colors I've chosen. It's almost halfway done already.

Interchange Kit
The mail played havoc with this. It was mailed at the end of August and finally got to me at the end of October. But I -will- still do this Linda Kreinmiller kit.

Working Around
I've begun the circle around the sun's face. That means I'm that far down to being done. Lots of orange this time, too.
Diamond Box Opened
There were fifteen items in this color box. I don't understand the pink and blue colors, but technically there are diamonds that color. Now to get something done with this stuff.

Cotton & Twine August
August's box took three months to get to me and was busted up when it got here. Nothing in the actual kit was damaged or lost. This will be started soon.
N'Katun
One good thing about this summer is that we had to find new restaurants and places to go to that were out in the countryside and adhered to social distancing. This was one of our finds - N'Katun. It's on the road between Vushtrri and Pristina.
We are so glad we discovered it and will be going back when we can. We got a set menu - something we try to do whenever we go places. It's easier. One of our pod said this was the best beef she'd had in Kosovo. It, along with everything else, tasted wonderful on a beautiful summer day.

Sushico Is Better Than Nothing
We used to go to Sushico. We've ordered from them since March, but the food doesn't survive transport too well. They also seem to not take as much care. It's sad. I miss eating places in person.

Vushtrri's Old Bridge
This bridge was built in the eleventh century. The river it crossed has since been diverted about half a kilometer away. One Saturday this summer, the pod went to look at the bridge. We were going to look at Vushtrri's castle, too, but it was closed.
Also, the first cattails I've ever seen in Europe!

Smoked Poultry
Some smoked poultry from last year. Maybe we'll do more smoking once we move. Or when Leonora moves out. It's not as fun when you have someone you know won't eat it.
