Day 8 of 21 Day Creative Exercise - creating while I cook...yumm!


Hi Everyone...

I made you a special cup of coffee or tea...so we can visit...

Hard to believe it is day 8 of my creative journey with this exercise...what a fun it has been each and every day....

Today I felt like making a homemade pizza from scratch (had to post some photos...you know me and food...lol) so while it was baking Cole and I painted ...I had a lot of fun with these...I especially have a love for giraffes...ever since we took our son to the Zoo last summer and he was so excited to see the "big" giraffe....what a great time







I love homemade pizza...
anything baking with a bread base smells pretty good!
Have a wonderful day and pop by all week...
Cheers,
Diana

  1. Great frog and giraffe! And the pizza was tasty as well!! :)

    The zoo is one of my favorite places to go, not necessarily to draw, but just to get away. Ours has beautiful gardens throughout, a great play area and waterpark for the kids, and great animal exhibits. it is amazing how it has changed over the 30 or so years I remember visiting!

  3. Hi Tom...

    we go to this zoo in Elmvale...and it is the most amazing place...it is small but has so many wonderful animals...we love it!

    the zoo is a fun place ....amazing how things change over the years...when I was growing up we had a drive thru zoo..African Lion Safari...and I remember the monkeys destroying my Dad's car...it was priceless...we laughed and laughed...
