"Moskva schnit"

Hotel Moskva's famous cake, the "Moskva Schnit" (schneet) turned 40 last November.  Where was I?  Obviously oblivious to that fact, since #1 I spent a large part of that month sick as a dog, and #2 I don't eat cake hardly at all.

If you click here and can read Serbian, you can read about its history from when it was invented in 1974.  Even if you don't know Serbian, you can see photos of the 40th anniversary at the hotel, attended of course by its creator, Anica Džepina, now retired.

You might remember this post of mine from 2008.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--from across the street

Drizzling a few evenings ago as I caught these walkers in front of Belgrade's City Hall from the other side of the street.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--the universe?

Now that I see this puddle reflection larger(actually two puddles, one without a reflection), it now looks to me like the surface of some planet with another galaxy in the dark sky (sidewalk!) behind it.

SKYWATCH--Pretty in pink...and blue

Belgrade's Bridge on Ada, with the former concentration camp watchtower in the foreground.

Walking the line...

Not really walking the line, but I needed a title....

ABC WEDNESDAY--"W" is for "wee"

I have a Scottish friend who often uses the word 'wee'.  This little Yorkie definitely fits the definition of 'wee'.

Sharing....

If you're in trouble, or hurt or need - go to the poor people. They're the only ones that'll help - the only ones.

Still life

A short while ago when I was laid up with a bad virus, I took this photo with my little Minox Dcc 5.1 camera.

You might recognize this garlic from my post the other day.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY--In the rain

The other day, in the rain.....

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS--Ready for the holidays

Someone's ready for the holidays.  Are you?

SKYWATCH--Prayer or exercise

Praying or exercising skyward, perhaps both!
