Two finished pieces to offer

"Stephanie" 8 x 10 inches on brown colourfix paper, done with Prismacolor pencils.

"Watchful" 5x7 inches on brown colourfixpaper , done with Prismacolor pencils

Hi folks! Last night I finished two pieces! I will admit, though, that I will have to touch up the horse portrait's shoulder a little bit.
Also finished (actually finished mind you) a leopard I did for a thread challenge (Wetcanvas.com).
Today I went shopping at a favorite clothes department and searched diligently through the sales rack for something nice-(I'm always chronically short on pants, my bed or dresser must be devouring them in my sleep) and as usually you'll find size 0 or 2 pants (Argh!) and if you find your size (oh, this looks promising!) you find it has ticky-tacky graffiti or unfavorable rips, extra embellishments, zippers, buttons, or embroidery. Alas, I did find a decent pair of green cords in my size as well as a comfy fleecy blue sweater! Plus I got to go to the bookstore (high pitched girly squeals excluded) and found two books to my liking.




My new green corduroys!

Ah yes, it is turning out to be pretty good day!
(Quote from the movie The Money Pit
a fantastic movie if you want to laugh until your eyes water)
It didn't start doing slushy rain mix until after I got home either. Count your blessings.
Oh yes, and here's a yummy sandwich to try if your ever interested in trying something different (IT'S FLAMIN' DELICIOUS!). Toast two pieces of honey wheat (or your favorite white bread) bread. Put mayo on both slices. Split half of a cooked chicken breast in half sideways and cut that half longways. Take a little of that cold stuffing taht's in your refridgerator that you made the night before with your baked chicken and put it on your slice of bread. Lay on top of the stuffing your two quarters of chicken. Top it with a slice of provolone cheese. Put your other toast slice on top. Voila!
Do you want the extra special (extra delicious) version? Here goes:
Toast two slices of bread. Mix cranberry sauce and mayo together,( make it 3/4 cranberry sauce and 1/4 mayo). Spread a hearty amount on each slice. Put bean sprouts or baby spinach on each one slice of toast. Put a layer of cold stuffing on top of that. Then add cold thick sliced turky (carved thanksgiving turkey is the best) or chicken breast on top of that. Lastly, top it with provolone or swiss cheese, (provolone is da best, but swiss is pretty close).
There. I hope I made your day. Now go make that sandwich! I'm going to go eat dinner now.
Happy blogging!
