Life's a Stitch

And more recently life’s a creative adventure with some travel thrown in.

Additions to my quirky sign collection:

How do you like your lite men? Rare? Well done? This is the place for you if you like yours with potatoes.

I know, it's in French, but it struck me funny that you could get pain in the spa buffet, but not in the general dining area. There is was just plain bread. No pain some gain. 

Be careful of the traditional treats of Costa Rica:

Vegetarians, cover your eyes. 

It's a ling pig:

Admittedly gross, but delicious (thank goodness for IPhoto's retouch tool). Brought back a memory of being eleven, and my parents hosting a New Year's Day party featuring a roast pig. As the guests entered the house and passed the dining room, my father introduced the guests to the cooked pig, saying "You remember our dog, Whiskey." No wonder I'm the way I am. 

This sign tells me "Don't get into trouble in Panama:"

Finally, some good advice for all of us. Whenever possible, live your trace on the sand. But remember your sunscreen:

My favourite picture of that day. No sign necessary – Mr. B, obviously a tourist.

Thanks for putting up with the departure from knitting, it's been a slow go with recent hand problems. Pictures soon.

    Love the photo of Mr.B. Is it me or does the rock to the left look like a big fist?

    I am glad I am not the only one to see a fist in that picture.

    Great pictures all around. I, too, liked the last one and saw a hand in there too.

    Yikes, I hope that wasn’t literal monkey poop?!
    I thought the hand was carved in rock, but is it a natural formation?

    The last one is my favorite as well. Seventeen days. (‘but who’s counting?)

    I can see why that sign tells you to stay out of trouble in Panama!
    Looks like an absolutely lovely trip. Love the all the pictures of signs. Sometimes they explain everything we need in life.
