Moooon river....

It's the moon? It's the sun? It's a piece of cheese? No, it's my bedside light!

I don't give a sheet!

I got a few requests to see the sheets that match with my pajamas that match with my slippers that (incidentally) match with my kitchen chair covers.

These boots actually *were* made for walking.

Pecorino.

This one's for my father, since I know he loves the name so much.

Flora

Drying pink rose.

A Cut Above

These last two pictures are very apropos of my life right now (aside from the fact that I like the lines in this one): cooking and washing dishes.

A Full Belly

Never has our fridge been kept so full...houseguests with a good appetite will do that I guess!

Rotten apple!

Nipply leaf

Embroidery

A pretty twisting-threaded tablecloth my mother gave me.

Treats!

The belated candy-filled stocking I got from Andrea's aunt and uncle for the Epiphany.

Skin and Bones

Greenery

Did someone mention coffee??!

Rainy night car window

Lotsa pink!

The cute needlepoint ribbons made by the babies' new grandma.

Happy Birth-day!

The drawing Andrea made on the waiting room design wall as soon as we got the news that Mommy and babies were healthy and happy!

Mini Maximum!

I just smile at the irony of these every time I look at them lined up in my kitchen.

Feeling sheepish.

A handcrafted holiday decoration I bought in Vienna.

What the...?

Minds out of the gutter, it's a portable banana case Andrea got for Christmas. Pigs.

33!!

(ok, I admit it, I didn't take this one, Andrea did. So sue me!)

Back Home Again

Pivnice in Prague

My love for Pilsner was born at one of these Pivnice's (pubs). This particular on was called U Fleku, but we never did get in as they were closing when we got there and were less than kind! Oh well, I got my Pilsner Urquell elsewhere.

The Hunterwasser House, Vienna

Architect Hunterwasser's philosophy: "the straight line is god-less". Trees grew from the windows, the floors were hilly, the stairs and walls uneven in an attempt to bring us back to our "natural" balance.

Schonbrun gardens, Vienna

The view from down the long gardens toward the main building of the Schonbrun Palace.

My Prague Burka

It was FREEEEZING!

(Jan. 3rd to Jan. 6th pictures are leftovers from the trip, I had a plethora to choose from!)

Hdradcany Palace, Prague

Token New Year's Fireworks Picture

Though, I do believe everything looks better in Prague! Happy New Year!
