It is written and illustrated by me!!! and I can't wait till you all see it and read it....I hope you will love it !!!
Here is Minnie....she loves to run up and down and dive off the dock!!! she is a riot .....

Hi Diana,
ReplyDeleteYou must have had a lovely weekend with your family.
I love the mixed media piece and how wonderful that you are doing a book.
Those tomatoes and cauliflower look great and home grown is always way nicer. I am right there with the tomato sandwich with a grind of black pepper and mayonnaise.
Have a great week
Hugs
