red beans |
DH made a batch of red beans and rice last week. I LOVE red beans and rice! And his is the best... even better than they serve in the restaurants at home (New Orleans). It was the perfect meal for these cold, dreary, rainy winter days.

And this past Monday would have been my sister's 85th birthday! She passed away at 51 of Cancer. I was only 10 when she married at 19 and moved to Mexico City. But as the years went by, she eventually moved back and we were just beginning to know each other as adults when she died.

sketch and water color |
Practicing my watercolor (which needs a lot of work) on a sketch I had made years ago for the cover for my book... before I found an actual picture that I was happy to use. I really need to take a watercolor class one day. Started one in 2017... but before the second class I was in the hospital with acute appendicitis.
Oh well, maybe one day. BTW, my friend who owns a kiln fired my batch of cheeky chickens last week... (10 chickens and 1 fox) so at least they have had their first firing. They will need another after I black bird them... and that may be a while since I'm out of blackbird.
OK, enough sharing for today. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. The weather had been a bit bleak this week, but my concerns for our country (politics and the pandemic) seem to have lightened... :)
Hugs (virtual),
