Fly, Fly, Fly and Morning Ritual


"Fly, Fly, Fly"


"My Morning Ritual"

I am happiest when I sketch wherever I am at. So I'm carrying my sketchbook and pens wherever I go. 
These two lovelies are in my home where I feel at peace and so I had plenty of time to obsessively add details. HahahaHahaHahaAH!

A Beautiful Book for $2

I've been wanting a cookbook with traditional Mexican recipes and I've found it at the 2nd hand store. This was a great find and I grabbed it knowing this was a gem. It's got some wonderful photos of the people and the food. Here is a sample of the inside....
There are recipes from different regions.


A pair of beautiful ladies. Probably a mother and her daughter. This photo reminded me of the time I helped my mother sell some mexican planters on our driveway. They were beautifully painted and in a variety of shapes and colors.
 
Rompope! I will be making this for my father. 

The three fingers I slashed with a utility blade a week before I went to Japan for a month (you can see the scar on the index finger). Oh, and a man carrying home some fresh fish for dinner. I would love to go visit Mexico. There are many amazing photos in the book and I'm aching for a trip to another country.

Hurray for the Salvation Army & New Pair of Glasses!

I found a book that I had on my wish list! I paid only $ 1.98! Hardbound and in excellent condition! We had some time to spare after picking up my new reading glasses. The day has been cloudy with some rain off and on. A perfect day to browse around the Salvation Army and see what goodies we could find.
I also got this one for .50 cents. After reading the heavy virtues I can relax and kick off my shoes with a novel about, "artistic vision and sensual awakenings." This wasn't on my wish list, but I thought I'd give it a try since I haven't seen the movie.
