Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Spirals and Spaghetti and Chicken Meatballs


 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date!  The theme is 'Spirals' and here is my Octopus Tentacle inspiration.  It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in watercolur pencil and outlined with an acrylic marker.  Nature holds a remarkable array of patterns.

For the Dinner Date, I made some spaghetti and ground chicken meatballs.  They were delicious!

Oh, boy.
1990-something we were in Spain with friends.
My friend´s boyfriend had mini-octopus and whilst gesturing threw one on my white dress. Meep.
Thank you for the laugh.
Cute sketch and I´d rather very happily go for your spaghetti - they look great!
I´ve never seen ground chicken here! Must ask.

Using an octopus tentacle is such a cool way to depict a spiral, Christine.

Love the Octopus tentacle ... very clever idea. Now I am thinking you should have stirred your spaghetti into spirals too. But, that's okay. It looks delicious just as it is :) Cheers, Christine ...
