Scavenger Hunt Sunday…


Another week gone by and here we are at Scavenger Hunt Sunday.  Prompts this week were:  Asian, Wavy, Draw, Soft and Texture.  Here are my entries.

My son Evan, who is now working at Quinnsigamond Community College (YAY!), was on Spring Break this week so we went out to lunch at one of our favorite Thai restaurants, The Thai House, in East Brookfield, Massachusetts.  Here’s my cup of tea for ASIAN.



Nice WAVY, green lettuce:



A few years ago, Greg got me some drawing lessons for Christmas.  I went faithfully for about six weeks until I ran out of the free-to-me lessons and then I quit.  I enjoyed the lessons a lot and worked fairly diligently while I was taking them, but I just couldn’t keep up the discipline of practicing once I stopped taking the lessons…sort of the way I was with the piano as a kid.  Oh, well…  Here’s one of my practice DRAWings that I dug up for this Sunday.  Note that I decided to draw one of my favorite things,
 implements for coffee making.



SOFT yarn…I am in the middle of making an African flower afghan.



I brought these forsythia branches in last week to force and they are a nice bit of cheery yellow in our kitchen right now.  I took them back outside this morning to take their picture and used a bokeh TEXTURE that I found on picmonkey.com to jazz them up.
