Crimean food as is. It is very, very tasety and yummy. And very fresh. The fish is just from the sea, the meat never was put to fridge.

 We also gathered mushrooms, this summer is rich for mushrooms and berries. But not all mushrooms are fine.

The mushroom I hold is toadstool, here it's called "the devil's mushroom". 

And this is not food, this is the cat that rests in the old postbox near my house. ;)

Blessed summer! :)))

Tkemaly sause

 
Just an hour ago I've cooked Tkemaly.
I've gathered some cherry-plum near my house, mint and coriander, added some chili and salt.

Today we traveled to Shakh-Murzy lake. I've made much photoes, but I'd like to show you the mushrooms we gathered there.

Blessed Lytha!

 

Just a day on Klementyeva hill. Paraplans, shashlik, storm and magic nature.

Early summer in Koktebel. Just some pics and nothing more...

I've finished with this new necklace (or you can say it's a pendant, as you like). Jade, czech glass beads, marine checking pearls.

When I've completed my first "lazy" bolero, I've not been totaly satisfied with it. So, I've repeated this model for grown-up, and now I am satisfied. The reason is that this model is not suitable for children, it's better for grown-ups.

Here it is. What do you think about this variant?

"Never say never", yes? :) I've made it again. One more scarf. I hope it would be the last one till next fall.

 

Well, I've a little bit tired of scarfs, and now my favorite is "lazy" bolero. This one I've made for my friend's daughter.

Why I've called it "lazy"? The secret is...

I am really in love with this sort of yarn! One free evening and 200 gr of yarn, and here is a new scarf! It's about the first spring grass, that appears under the fallen leaves.

My congratulations to my good friend Nadezhda! She made her web-site of the abyssinian cattery! Nadya, I wish you all the best, and I wish many happy days to your wonderful cats!

A few days ago I've bought some turnip in the vegetable shop. I've never tried it before, so, that was my first experiment, and I think it was successful!

 

I've taken some fresh mushrooms (champignons), onion, two average turnips and some seed oil. Salt and curry (my favorite flavoring).

A half of the winter already passed, but the "winter mode" still remaines. This scarf is about winter days on the seashore: weeds on the sand, wet wind and the smoke from the hearth. A good time for reading a good book. A good time for spring waiting...

The scarf is nearly 2 m long, 100 gr weight. 100% acrilyc.
