Forever

Does it sometimes feel like forever?

Coffee and Sleep

Ah, sleep.  I've been up all night on a long flight from LA...maybe I should have tried a cup of coffee this morning.

Espresso Yourself

I just love this quote.

Today I'm off to Camp Blogaway. A big thank you to Jarlsberg Cheese and YumGallery for the opportunity to attend!

Very soon I will showcase some Jarlsberg Cheese  illustrations. For now, take a peak at some images I created for them over a year ago...click here.

Life is too short...

If you want instant coffee...

My parents were instant coffee drinkers...so that's all I experienced at our house.  For those above that...

Not My Cup of Tea

Sometimes I forget the popularity of coffee...not being a drinker myself.    I do admit to a little coffee flavoring in ice cream or chocolate here or there, but a cup of jo does not grace my mug each morning.  Someone did suggest I create a series of coffee images nonetheless.  Over the next few days I'll pour out some of these new illustrations paired with coffee quotes.  Enjoy. 

Dining with Dachshunds

One last pattern inspired by our furry little dachshund.

Retro Kitchen

Another pattern scattered with ladles and spatulas.  All these designs are on my Spoonflower page if you'd like to take a look.

Artichoke Flowers

I was just creating some fun patterns today...

Strawberries

And here we arrive at the last celebrated berry for this week...the strawberry.  Inspired by our neighbor's strawberry patch, we'll be planting our own this spring.  I am so excited.
