Baggage!

21 baggage

The lurgi has left me but I’m getting tired very easily and although I had good intentions to go to life drawing this evening, I’m too shattered. So I drew a pile of bags that I’d dumped on the floor instead. I’m so slovenly. I used Pentel V5 and Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens into my blue silk recycled A6 sketchbook, which only has a few blank pages left.

Husb is glad I’m missing life drawing tonight because he can pile into the Victoria Sandwich I made to take with me.

Victoria Sandwich

I filled it with home-made strawberry butter. Which doesn’t contain butter; it’s a Victorian preserve made by sieving cooked fruit and boiling the pulp with sugar, in the same way as jam. The result has a buttery texture and is great for filling sponge cakes. It turns a lovely dark purple, not at all like the vivid pink of raw strawberries.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D

      2. oooh that’s an interesting thought. hmmmm, now I’m going to have to find out – you’ve unleashed my inner geek lol. You can make sponges by whisking eggs, almost like a meringue. Now I’m obsessed 😀
