Christmas Cookies

Posted in art, cooking at 9:09 pm by picklemouse

Yesterday we baked and decorated Christmas cookies. Every year I have fantasies of making beautiful, chic, Martha Stewart-esque cookies. Most years the outcome is less than satisfying, meaning the cookies do not measure up to either my imagination or the magazine photos. You would not believe what that woman can do with a cookie! This year was a relative success.

Of course, Art Boy’s dinosaur cookies were carved free-hand and artistically shaded with sprinkles.

Love Doodles

Posted in art, true love at 8:44 pm by picklemouse

Until a couple of weeks ago, my hub and I used to commute to and from work together. He would pick me up in the evenings, and because I'm a workaholic (and my boss likes to talk) I would never be ready to go when he arrived. He would draw elaborate wildlife doodles on my whiteboard.

For the time being, we're living in separate states while I try to sell our house and he tries to find us a new one. I mentioned that rather than love notes, he could send me love doodles. Here's the first in what will (hopefully) be a series.
