Love this type of puzzle! Lots of sharp looking pencils in this picture, and I can assure you that they were all sharpened by an electric sharpener. No way can a hand held one get a point like the ones in here.
Adding this one to my favorites list!! Most on my list are craft pictures including paints, brushes and all kinds of art supplies, even though I don't use any of these things myself.
Thanks pixipixil!
According to the Greek Orthodox Church, every day of the year is dedicated to the memory of at least one (usually more than one) saint or martyr. If someone is named after a saint, then there is a big celebration on his or her name day.
I was named after St. George.Saint George's Day is celebrated on 23 April, but this year this was on Lazarus Saturday (therefore it is celebrated on the first Monday after Easter Sunday - May 2nd).

Thank you all! CatLadyOKC I am used to explain, because I studied abroad. We have the custom to give chocolates or pastries on our name day to all friends and relatives we meet on that day, and all my non-Greek friends asked "what is name day? "
