Goofin around

I did make another hat. I really like this style. I made it a bit shorter in the crown so it works better with a jacket. I also made a neck something. Warmer, neckerchief, not a tie, not quite a scarf...... I don't know but I put some of my favortie buttons from here. If I could be a button these are the buttons I would be. Sherie knows what I'm talkin bout.....

And no, you know who was not taking these pics. I did not want to disturb his studying and so was tormenting myself. Can't you tell.... blurry much?

Quiet weekend

We were both not feeling so great this weekend. We ended up staying in Friday and most of Saturday. In the afternoon we decided that going out somewhere would maybe make us feel better. Who knew it was going to be so extremely crowded at the Stuttgart Weinachtsmarkt..... I did get to eat at my other favorite fish place. This is the Finnish part of the market on the Eberhardt platz where the flea market is. They have a big tepee set up with fires and furs on the benches. It is cozy and warm and the salmon is fantastic. You know who and Evie spent part of the evening studying together.

Then apparently, Evie became tired of reading.

This afternoon we tried the going outside therapy again. Esslingen had what seemed to be record numbers, go figure.... At least we knew where we were going and what we wanted to eat...... It was exhausting trying to get through the crowds! We were able to catch a distant glimpse of the stilt people coming through, I am not sure how they do this on the cobblestones and in the crowd.

I prefer them at a distance myself but one always seems to find me and get up close and personal.....

Hope you had a great weekend!

Gee, I think the snow is heavy.....

It took me a second to realize something was different. I mean it is dark outside and all.... This is my terrace. Chair covered in snow, planter with a snow hat, and behind that a post with a precarious perching of snow.... There is a point.... The plants behind the chair, were yesterday, taller than the post.... I hope they are just bent over under the snow. Oops, I need to make sure Evie can't jump that high!!!
