illustration friday - breakfast

Breakfast is the word this week at Illustration Friday. I love food and cooking but when it comes to breakfast…I lack imagination. My summer breakfast consists of wheat chex, tea and whatever fruit is in season. In the winter, I change out the wheat chex for oat meal.

Just in that kind of mood. What can I say?

cucumber salad recipe

This is one of my favorite summer recipes…especially when the cucumbers start to ripen and you have them coming out your ears!!

I submitted it to They Draw and Cook. Please visit this great site if you haven’t already and check out all the other wonderful recipes.

you bite it, you write it!

That’s my mantra! I learned that at Weight Watchers and it’s helped me lose 35 lbs.

Some weeks it’s hard for me to keep at the journaling (writing down everything I eat during the day). So for those weeks, I draw what I eat instead. Just to mix things up.

This was my afternoon snack yesterday. Yum…chocolate!

beach towels

I got the idea for this painting during my water aerobics class. Everyone hangs their towels on the wall hooks and they make such a colorful backdrop. I didn’t draw this on location though. I used my own towels as models to get the folds just right!

matchbooks

More matchbooks.

Don’t know about you but I’m looking forward to a nice, l-o-n-g weekend. Stay safe and have a good Independence Day!
