Beading Away

I had hoped to have more beading done.  Unfortunately, our rental apartment is not conducive to beading.  I've been trying.  I truly want to get this done.  At least the top part is about done!

Lofting The Chips

 Andreas and I took one look at the cafeteria one day last month, walked out, and headed to the Loft.  It was mackerel day.  We had a better lunch.  Except for the chips and salsa.  The salsa was ketchup based and came with two chips.  Moldovans do -not- know how to make salsa.  The rest of the lunch was good, at least!




Church of Sainte Mere

 The Village of Sainte Mere is the place the 101st Airborne parachuted into on D Day.  We caught it on a sunny day with a funeral going on inside the church, so photos from the outside only.  This is from our trip to France in 2013.  Andreas has been a bit dilatory in processing photos.


Banding

Amazing how sitting on an airplane enables one to stitch!  I got the hill done along with two bands and made a big dent in a third.  This is almost halfway done now.  Yay!

Stephanie And Maxim's Wedding

 Last month Stephanie and Maxim, two friends of ours, got married in Moldova.  We were privileged to go to the wedding.  Stephanie looked absolutely lovely and her groom looked very in love.  They had the usual Moldovan wedding spread that I took photos of.  Our table seated ten people.  We couldn't eat all the food on the table and it just kept coming!  Congratulations to Stephanie and Maxim and many happy years together.













Last Of Krakow - For Now

While we stay another day and a half in Krakow this time, this is the last of the photo sets from last year.  We went to a dinner show with Polish dancing and singing. These are some photos. I am not at all sure of the red and white striped pants.

Bordering On Borleaux

I am working diligently on the puce border.  There's another border outside this then it's done.
