In today's mail, a copy of the latest Old Farmer's
Almanac for Kids, volume 4. Including a spread
I did about a year ago. Takes a while to assemble
all the parts; words, art and photos.
Given just the space I had to work in and the request
for Dad to be rolling out dough with lots of ingredients
on the table and children watching. But what were they
cooking?

Didn't know anything else until I opened the
Almanac this afternoon. Good fun.
And I didn't forget to add the cat.
I love this!

All I was told was to show all sorts of different ingredients
ReplyDeleteincluding peaches and cookies in the oven. I think they weren't sure what recipe they would use it with. Over the years I've had this sort of thing happen several times.
So goes the life of this hired pencil".
I should do a post on odd and "funny" instructions I have
followed.... all in pursuit of paying the mortgage. :~)
