Hi Everybody!
Happy weekend. Here it's very stormy, so just a quick post before I lose the internet connection again. If it's not one thing its another! I have a rather crazy A3 mixed media piece which I am linking to Elizabeth's what's my style challenge at AJJ:
These were the salads and platters they served for our evening meal today:
Some thinkies:
Have a great weekend, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Your salads and platters look good.
ReplyDeleteI like your art and the last funny had me smiling :)
Stay safe and warm in the storms ...
Storm Eunice hit the UK on Friday, fortunately Eddie and I are okay but many have not been as fortunate.
Do take care.
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan, we had a wild day yesterday and some places there was a lot of damage. Today it's calm and sunny! Have a great weekend!
DeleteI like this piece with all the circle Valerie. It gives her a fun vintage 60's vibe.And hopefully you don't lose your marbles either. Your dinner looks pretty good too. Looks like a good stormy night dinner. Hope you don't lose power and that the storm isn't too bad. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika, I think I lost my marbles a long time ago! Have a great weekend, hugs!
DeleteBeautiful art piece and the food looks delicious! Stay safe in the storm Valerie. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThanks Martha, take care, have a great weekend!
DeleteVery awesome page Valerie, great thinkies and your meal choices look delicious.
ReplyDeleteHope the storm passes on hugs Happy weekend Kathy
Thanks Kathy, the storm has moved on, it's calm and sunny today. Look after yourself, hugs!
DeleteAnother lady of character. Love her.
ReplyDeleteYour meal looks delicious.
Thanks Sandra, we get lots of great food here!
DeleteLovely lady and a delicious meal! Thanks for the thinkies.
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine, have a wonderful weekend!
DeleteFabulous! Hope the weather isn't too bad and that you still have power. :)

Thanks Jess, everything seems to be back to normal today!
DeleteLove the marbles art and smiles. We have had snow, hail, winds, ice, rain but not the worst of it by any means. Take care, V xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Vee, glad you are safe, have a great weekend!
DeleteNice cheerful art piece. The salads and platters look delicious. These days we are getting more hot days.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy. No hot days here yet, but today it's sunny, so that's something.
DeleteWonderful painting, love it. Have a great weekend. Anesha
ReplyDeleteThanks Anesha! Have a great weekend!
DeletePlease take care of yourself, Valerie. Your page is beautiful. I love how you mixed your drawing/painting with the circle images. Hugs, my friend.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Mia. I love playing with collage! Take care, hugs, Valerie
DeleteGood morning Valerie: She looks ravishing, a good time girl if ever I saw one! Send her over will you? That storm you mentioned seems to have affected a good part of northern Europe. I have seen blogs from the Netherlands and Denmark where it is mentioned. Despite all our technology the weather still rules everything, and given the way we are messing with the climate it is going to become less and less friendly. I just read a report that indicates that sea levels around North America are expected to rise by about 30 cm over the next thirty years. That means that cities like Miami will routinely flood and when hurricanes strike and drive storm surges will be totally underwater. Yet we continue to subsidize fossil fuels, effectively working on our own extinction. I shudder to think of the world we are bequeathing to Lily. Look at all that food you have at the clinic - and so much choice. It would almost make you conspire to get in there. Maybe not, good health is worth more than anything else isn't it? Enjoy the weekend. Perhaps your knee will have healed enough to permit a walk. Hugs and kisses, David
ReplyDeleteHi David, so glad you like the lady I created for you today. But beware, she hasn't got all her marbles, just like me! The storm was bad here, but much worse other places in the north and east of Germany. And as you so rightly say, if they continue to do all they can to destroy the world, it won't last long! The kids of Lilys age will not find life easy if they don'r really do something - apart from talking, talking, talking- soon! Our food here at the clinic is always good! But still I will be happy when I'm well enough to go home, hopefully by the end of the month. Have a great weekend, look after yourself, big hugs!
DeleteWow Valerie, I love your collage, it's so striking and full of interest. We have having crazy weather here too, but others are having it so much worse. Your meal looks delicious, but I'm sure you would rather be back home. I hope you knee is feeling better today. Take care and have a lovely (and relaxing) weekend, Sue xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue. Our food here is really good, but as you say, back home wwsould be better! Hugs!
DeleteThat should be would, don't know how the extra letters crept in!
DeleteHi Val, good afternoon. Sorry I'm so late, a tree in the garden fell into the kitchen and we've been busy getting it chopped up and the wall and window covered till it can be repaired, hopefully this week! Take care, look after yourself, hugs from us all! Sarah
ReplyDeleteSarah, I'm so sorry, that must have been am awful shock. I hope noone was hurt. Hope the repairs will be done quickly. Hugs to all, Valerie
DeleteLove your lady Valerie! Food looks delicious too!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a good weekend,
Alison
Yes the food here is good, I'm getting scared of the scales! Have a great weekend!
DeleteGreat looking food-I love your painting and the idea of the circles of faces around the main face.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Debra. Have a great Weekend, stay safe!
DeleteWhat fab a mixed media lady she is. Apart from her wonderful eyes and hair I love the little circles underneath her. I wondered if the beautiful array of dishes influenced you when you decided what they would be like.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the weather, yes it's been rough everywhere but we seem to have escaped. Just hope our caravan is ok. (at the side of a wood)
Hugs, Neet xx
Hi Neet, thanks a lot! The journaL page was made long before the dishes arrived on our table. I hope your caravan escaped the ravages of the weather, it really has been bad everywhere. Today is grey and wet, good weather to stay home and enjoy some painting, reading and relaxing. Enjoy your Sunday!
DeleteYou must not have noticed, but I was offline since midday yesterday due to an area wide outage at AT&T. Now I'm trying to catch up.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your collage and lady. This is really quite different from your other ladies you have given us. Thanks for sharing it with us at AJJ using Bleubeard's and my theme.
You eat SO well. I am so impressed with all the fresh foods you get. Please stay safe and warm and eat well, too, dear Valerie.
Hi Elizabeth. I know you often have outages by bad weather, but here it's rare. Glad you are back online again! Glad you liked my fun lady, I wanted to use up all those little circles I cut from a magazine ad. We get lots of good food here, that's for sure! Stay safe and hugs to you and the boys!
DeleteI wonder if that chicken count her eggs, before they were hatched.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
That could be the answer to the problem, Dora! Have a great day!
DeleteYour food looks delicious, but I hope you are soon well enough to be on your own in your own house, if that's what you like best.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Home is always home!
DeleteThat big hair reminds me of mine! Out of control -- your blue girl is much better! Boy, they certainly feed you well at the clinic, and I'm so glad. It looks like they do a great deal to present it well, along with serving you wonderful things. But I know you're longing to get out for a cappuccino at your favorite shop soon.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had big hair! We are well looked after here!
DeleteThese food look awesome. All the best!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nas! Have a great week!
DeleteAlways late calling in these days Valerie, I hope the food platters tasted as good as they looked in the photos.
ReplyDeleteA fantastic and beautiful lady in your page as well.
Stay safe.
Yvonne xx
Thanks Yvonne. Have a wonderful week! Hugs!
DeleteThey certainly know how to do food to make it both healthy and attractive. Nice :)
ReplyDeleteThat last funny made me smile. Loving your new lady. Can't stay long as the lovely food is making me feel hungry Lol!XxX
ReplyDeleteLove this face. You sure get some good food there. Hope you are well.
