Veggie Burger

Don't forget to set your clocks forward tonight if your area is affected by Daylight savings Time.

I got this package of Beyond Meat clearing at Walmart and decided to try it. I formed 4 burgers and cooked them for 4 minutes a side. They tasted good, very much like real meat. My sister thought they were still expensive at the clearance price, agreed.

Paint Party Friday - Violet Eyes ACEO

Welcome to Paint Party Friday! I did this 'violet eyes' ACEO on cardstock in permanent markers for you today.

And Happy 9th birthday PPF!

Rain's Thursday Art Date - what do you see ACEO

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art Date, thanks for hosting Rain! Her theme is 'what do you see'. I went literally with the theme and this is an eye, a brown one highlighted with purple eyeshadow. It is a small ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in permanent markers on cardstock.  The eye is slanted upward for an exotic look.

I imagine this eye sees hope, inspired by this quote from Martin Luther King:

"We must accept finite disappointment but never lose infinite hope" - Martin Luther King.

Signs of Spring

I caught sight of this chipmunk in a tree a couple of weeks ago (Feb 24th) when the weather had been springlike. Then it froze up again.

Daughter L said her dentist called to confirm her upcoming appointment.  They asked her to verify that she had not been in contact with anyone who had recently travelled to China or Iran.  Furthermore was she in contact with any relatives of such people.  Fortunately she was able to say 'no'.  Everyone is scared of the new coronavirus and are taking all kinds of precautions.

Something New

My brother-in-law in Miami shared this photo of something new from Kentucky Fried Chicken. It is a chicken and donut sandwich. They enjoyed it. It doesn't look very appetizing to me, maybe a heart attack waiting to happen.

Urban Dictionary

We stopped by a fish and chips place the other day called 'Granny's Fish and Chips'. The haddock was not greasy, the coleslaw was creamy and delicious and of course we had tartar sauce with it. When was the last time you had fish and chips, it is nice once in awhile.

And I am sharing some urban dictionary words with you today. The younger generation will use these words, forcing me to go googling.

Juul - 'A highly concentrated nicotine vaporizer which underage kids use to get a buzz. It is commonly mistaken for a USB stick which makes it easy to take use in class.'

Welcome to March, I mean that!

Sharing my March calendar page with you today. I chose this quote to go with my painting of a basket of tulips.
