Food, Family, Music, Friendship

I love this picture. We went up to Starhill to have Thanksgiving dinner with some friends. Our hostess (right) and her father from Georgia went into the parlor to play piano and sing after dinner. Here, they’re singing “It Had To Be You” together. It was the perfect denouement to a delicious dinner with old pals. For food, music, family, and friendship, I am very thankful.

(This, by the way, was a plain iPhone photo I ran through the Brushstroke app, which is a lot of fun.)

Sarajevo ‘War Hostel’ Offers Taste Of Siege Life

The Sarajevo ‘War Hostel’ takes tourists back in time to a dark period in Europe’s resent history during one of its bloodiest sieges. Tourists passing through Bosnia-Herzegovina are given the opportunity to experience the siege of the Bosnian capital during the Balkan conflict in the 1990s. Guests will spend their time in war-time conditions, sleeping on sponge mattresses under military blankets and reading newspaper clippings by candlelight. RT.com reports: The hostel is run by a family who survived the three-year-long siege.
