Or IN the ice box if you prefer! ;-)
In anticipation of drawing in my kitchen yesterday I cleaned my stove top and herb area! Really, I did! I could not have anyone seeing it in less than pristine order! This is funny since I am anything but a kitchen maven or "good" house keeper. But when company is coming it gets a 'spit and polish'!
Get ready to read a lot about organic vegan eating in my coming posts! We'll start with my stove top where I prepare my meals. I sauté a lot of vegetables here. I've drawn my row of spices and herbs that sit along the back of my stove. That ceramic "carrot" spoon holder between the burners was a gift from my daughter when she was a little girl. I have never even thought of getting rid of it for something newer. It's even been glued back together after a fall. Very dear to me.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Elisa, I'm sure there will be many to come! I am newly happy in my kitchen. More about that later.
DeleteI love that spoon, what a great gift to have kept.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ann. My daughter, now an adult, asked me why I still had it. I told her I kept it because once a sweet little girl gave it to me as a gift and that I have treasured it ever since.
DeleteI love that you clean for company so we must be company. Lol I also love that spoon rest and the story about it.:))
ReplyDeleteYes, Cris, you are all my wonderful guests in my home! Glad you enjoyed the story!
DeleteWhat a fun looking sketch. It looks a lot like our stove top except that we have a ceramic red chili pepper spoon holder. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ron!
Deletethis is cool.. you just reminded me I need to go spice shopping! :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat did you run out of I wonder? Glad my art could help! ;-)
DeleteOh awesome!! You reminded me that I just bought some spice jars at the Import Store and haven't filled them yet. I love your sketch and did enjoy reading the story. Thanks. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gloria! Fill those bottles so you can make your spicy dishes!

Deletelove your sketch. I wish I was able to keep my spices out like that instead of in a cabinet.
