I’m not really a football fan, but living on the same property as our kids means there will be a Super Bowl party. So we made some snacks to contribute and took them over to the farmhouse.
The Chiefs weren’t doing so well, Michael frequently commenting on the unfairness of the calls against the team. Kristen, seen on the left in the above sketch looking at her phone, added “I came for the food!”
And myself? I came to sketch. And to finish the chapter of the Susanna Kearsley book I had been reading on my phone. And I came for the food. (Kristen is a fabulous cook!) . . . Can you spot the rescue kitty, Reece’s?
The book is a crime mystery, “Every Secret Thing”. It contains a back story of 2 people working for British Intelligence during World War II that once danced to the song “Make Believe” from Showboat. As I continued to read, that song was going through my head — and it is still there now, even though I finished the book.
My current sketchbook is larger than I usually journal in; my regular stretchy bands to hold a book closed won’t fit. So I found one with adjustable Velcro straps that fits — and it holds minimal tools which is quite handy. I tucked a pencil, fude pen, pocket palette, waterbrush, and folded paper towel in it.
