Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Flying Creatures Theme and also Spaghetti with Cream Sauce

These are my flying creatures for Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date. They were done back in 2019.


 For the Dinner date, I made this yummy Spaghetti and spinach with sun dried tomato cream sauce.  

Here is the recipe.  I never used sun-dried tomatoes before but have always liked them in recipes.  I didn't use whole wheat pasta as specified by the recipe and I did add some fresh basil.

Great job with the bats. And that pasta doesn't look bad either!

Love your flying creature drawings,

I try to buy Roma tomatoes every year and sun dry them. I wish we lived closer. I would gladly give you some as summer progresses.

LOL, that was my idea at first, also, as we have a (plastic) bat hanging in the kitchen.
Very well done, so cute!
Hmmm, spaghetti! Spinach I need a break from. The last one tasted strange as in "not good".

P.S. thank you for the wrong-link-hint. That explains why I see that often fellow bloggers have two links with the second saying, this is the correct one.
Blogger does not get better..

Love your flying bats. The contrast of the white on dark is magical.

We had a similar dish last night with a salad.

I do like bats and you truly captured them in flight in your art.

Oh, you just reminded me that I have a bat picture ... I think I will add it to my post. Your art is awesome ... a sweet little bat and anatomically correct :) Happy hot days of summer, Christine :)

Your drawing reminds me of the bat that was attached next to my daughter's front doorway. I just asked her what happened to it.
