Thank you all for complementing my Snow White shawl (*^-^*). I'm already thinking about the next lacy project, it's addictive!
So, we had a wonderful weather yesterday and we went for a picnic! ^^
First, there was like million people on the bus - because it was the first sunny free day, and all Warsaw inhabitants (those that didn't leave the town for a prolonged weekend) decided to go to Powsin Park and spend the day outside... So after some time in a crowd, with old ladies moaning and standing in a big traffic jam we decided it would be faster to leave on the next stop and go on foot for the rest of the way (which was a good idea, because we passed the bus that was left in a traffic jam...).
It's me, Anna and Gabriel. And here it's Caroline and me again! ^^
We found ourselves a nice piece of a lawn, had lunch outdoors - Chinese honey-and-soya ribs (ribs - how convenient for a knitter to eat! ^^I wonder whether they were 1x1 ribs, or maybe 2x2 ribs, because each of us got two of them...), a salad, hard-boiled eggs, cucumbers, and some biscuits (and because it was a public place - pretending it was a blackberry juice, not the red wine we were having...^^), and then we played petanque (my team lost twice...)! ^^ And then we had some ice-cream.
Playing petanque:
Peter, Anna, Caroline and my husband Robert. Me, Peter and Robert.
We came home strolling through the forest and it was a really nice day. In the evening our friends came over and we made spaghetti Bolognese for dinner and played Scrabble.
Late night I was soooo tired with the fresh air, games and wine ^^, that I was sound asleep when I barely put a cheek on the pillow!
Who can guess what this is?
It's my Clapotis! ^^
(Yes, I found some time to knit, of course! ^^)
And tomorrow it's a yarn trip!
What lovely pics!! Lucky you it is slowly getting colder and darker here. Had a fire on the other day. Must admit I quite like winter with fires and hot soup etc.
ReplyDeleteYour shawl is lovely by the way!! Congrats!
Looks like a really fun day! Clapotis is looking pretty too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great day!
ReplyDeleteI just love to play scrabble too.
