MONDAY MURALS--poppyseed roll

 Nothing like a good cup of black coffee and a piece of poppyseed roll, unless of course you don't like poppyseed roll. which I do not.  

Here's a recipe anyway.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--Iconic Restaurant

A 'kafana' is a restaurant often with live music that serves traditional Serbian food. Such is the case with Srpska Kafana, located not far from me. It was opened  in 1932, but had been closed for a couple of years recently due to restitution (property seized by the Communists and now being restored.)  

Its closest well-known neighbor is the Atelier 212, right next door, and many actors had the tradition of going there after a performance.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--another shoemaker's elf

 Earlier this year, I had posted another shoemaker's elf, but for some reason I can't seem to share the link.

Anyway, here's another for you.  Look at all those 'fancy' heels....

SKYWATCH--LOOKING WEST

 I have my son to thank for this photo taken from his balcony. We're looking west here, of course, at the disappearing sun.

I wish I could be a bit farther west today because it is my daughter's birthday and she is in the U.S.

Thank goodness for Skype. I'll eat some cake for her, too.

Another part....

 Another part of the tiger mural I posted on Monday. I was attracted by these luscious-looking tomatoes that seem to be growing on the roof.

CHERRY, CHERRY

 Just gotta love this cherry red Volkwsagen. Unlike the VW in this previous post, someone is taking care of this baby.

SYMMETRY

 Have to admit I have a thing for symmetry.

I find this old building on Jovanova Street in Belgrade very beautiful. (Ok, one window has its roll-down shutter half open...)

MONDAY MURALS..tiger...

 Came across this big cat downtown in a tucked-away passage. This artwork is part of a larger mural but I couldn't get it all in, so...

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--church in a puddle

 The steeple of the small Russian church in Tasmajdan park is reflected in this puddle.

BIG, YELLOW, AND SOUR

 Big, yellow, and sour for sure. This lemon was growing in a large pot at a restaurant where I had lunch recently. Would make great lemonade...or some kind of cocktail, if I had any say.

BEAUTY PARLOR PUP

 He or she is not a fancy pooch, but he or she does hang out at this salon, where I assume his/her owner works.
