Zenpop January

Lots of art supplies in this one. Now I need to find time to do art.

 

Talk About Disappointing

The January Yum Box was from ... Poland. Where do I live? Poland. So it had nothing special for me.

 

Diverso Lunch

This pizza restaurant is the little brother of the Michelin starred restaurant next door. Andreas took me here for lunch. Yes, it's a bit more expensive than other pizza places. It's also right next door to the Sejm, so it gets a lot of politicians. Pizza and salad were very good, but the pickled onions were pickled in something too sweet for my liking.

 

Lunch Out

There was nice weather on a Friday, so Andreas took me out to lunch. This place is about a ten minute walk from the office. It's good, too. Right on Plac Konstitucja, it's called U Szwejka. We split a schnitzel and each had a soup - he had zurek and I had gulash. Both were nice and warming. We had leftovers, too.

 

Naked Tree

The Christmas tree without the ornaments.

 

Sooo Tired

Grayson lays under Andreas' desk and pouts when Leonora is gone. 

 

Shawl from Stephanie

Stephanie brought me this beautiful shawl from Ecuador. It's so soft! I love it.

 

Not Quite American Food

While Jeff's Diner has the atmosphere down, the food is disappointing for an American vibe. Everything is just - off. The nachos were sad. It was such a disappointing experience.

 

Chewing

Grayson chewing on a rawhide stick as he misses his Leonora. He would be so much happier if she were here, he thinks. He did, however, finish the treat.

 

In My Work Stocking

Santa was very good to me at work!

 

Random Polish food

Considering what this is, it could be from any of a dozen restaurants I can think of. Anyway, Andreas enjoyed it.

 

Sheraton Perq

Because we've made platinum status, when we check in to a Marriott property, we get a nice little gift of some sort. This was from the Sheraton Grand Krakow.

 

Circle Purse

One more bag to add to my collection. I will use it soon.

 

Krakow in August

Photos from our last visit to Krakow together in August. We will be going back next week. Yes, it was a bit cloudy and rainy. The top photos are from the cafe at the top of the music school.

 

More Warsaw Christmas Lights

More changing color tree and some street decorations. It's very pretty at night in Old Town.

 

Christmas Gifts

Things from the Christmas stash. Andreas insisted on getting me a floss chest and some watches from Capri, because he knows I like them. His gift isn't pictured. It's an outdoor gas pizza oven. Getting the cylinder and things to put it together now.

 

Down the Main Street

Christmas lights down the main pedestrian street in Warsaw.

 

Christmas in Warsaw

Between Leonora being gone and us being sick for part of December, we didn't get to travel. At least Warsaw has a Christmas market, so I kept that streak. These photos are in the old square and in front of the Royal Palace. No snow, though.

 

Red Squirrel

We have a red squirrel that visits our backyard often. Andreas caught him in our trees. He is the bane of Grayson's existence.
