Chemistry And Physics Of Winemaking

What scientist could resist taking photos of the equations at the entrance to the Milestii Mici company shop?  I think they're great!



More Fences

I've got more fencing done on the right.  It was an all green session.

Looking Bluer

There's definitely more blue going around the edges.  It's working up pretty fast, and if I stuck to it, I'd have this done by now.  It's one of the few projects going with me to France today, so maybe I'll finish it there.

Wine Fountains

 At Milestii Mici, they've decked out their two fountains to look like red and white wine being poured into glasses.  Too bad it was such a nice day, as we ended up going into a cave.

Pretty Presentation

 Several of us went to Roata Vremii on a Thursday night in May.  We had a beautiful selection of Moldovan foods - fresh and pickled vegetables, cheese, smoked meats, placinte .... and for the main course, a bunch of grilled meat.  It was a wonderful evening.





Back To Dreaming

Still crawling up the side, but small progress is better than none.

Stray Puppy

 A stray dog has been somewhat adopted by the embassy community for the past year.  We call her Scruffy.  She's the dog in the bottom picture.  In April, she had a puppy.  That's who's in the top two pictures.  The puppy is only two months old and already half the size of momma.  There's a street dog problem here, and a lot of owned dogs are treated even worse, but we 're all hoping Scruffy and Socks live long and happy lives.
