My 'Summer Days' piece for Creative Tuesdays is done on an index card in watercolour pencil and crayon. At my age, the pleasure of summer comes to me in the variety of fresh, local fruit and vegetables available in the season. Cherries, corn on the cob, peaches, and even juicy minneola tangelos lately. I just read that a minneola is a cross between a grapefruit and a tangerine and mine were from Peru, not local! So do you roll your corn on the cob in butter? (I don't actually, lol). Thanks to Michael for hosting.

Lovely sketch!I love all the fresh fruits and veggies, but corn on the cob has been so so expensive this year that I didn't get any! Valerie
What Lovely!
Christine I love all you make :)
Very nice sketch. And I like all the foods you listed! But I don't put butter on my corn. I like it plain.
I would think having the time to enjoy anything, even fresh fruit, is a joy for any season. corn on the cob definitely but no butter either, I like it best by itself. great take on the theme.
hope you're having a great summer.
That is darling, Christine!
I rarely eat corn on the cob.
Christine you platter is what we've been doing all summer, eating light and serving it up on a tray. I love your snacks and we had corn on the cob last night. Those truly are the foods of the lazy days of summer. Great sketch.
to answer your question, pretty much every (especially recent ) picture I use for my facts of the day is in the public domain
thx Adam
Hi Christine, I love how you always design on post-it notes and now index cards. Very creative as is the delectable coloring. I usually don't roll my corn in butter, but I have. :-D
What a wonderful summer feast! I do put a bit of butter on my corn, but I don't roll it...
So fun.
Of course I roll my corn in butter, how should
I make the salt stay on there otherwise? And
it tastes much better than neutral :D
The funnies I understood except for the one
on top right, with Jester. :(
Have a beautiful day

That looks so super healthy and well drawn too, Christine. I like the composition of it too, being diagonal and such. Fruit can be a great pick me upper when feeling too lazy to cook too, right?
As for butter and corn-- I don;t roll it but then again, I rarely even eat corn as invariably pieces will get stuck between my teeth and I'm terrible with flossing!
Thanks for adding this to the group here, Christine hope the rest of your summer is lovely.
Lovely edible picture, Christine. We no longer eat corn (grain free diet) but do remember the really sweet first cobs of corn from the field.
Blessings,
Janis
Yep this is my pleasure too!! Gorgeous and yummy looking. We now roll our corn in avocado oil infused with fresh garlic...used to be butter though.
