Things I Heart Wednesday

I'm sort of loving these red red doggie rainboots... but don't they look like they're just made out of cut up juggling balls?
Bella would have these off (and chewed to pieces) in about three seconds flat!


I've been making a lot of soup for lunch lately, and the best is definitely cabbage soup, made from my friend Loreal's recipe, with chicken and sausage.
Yes, even my husband, the Texan, likes it!
He says the cabbage soaks up all the chicken flavour... so it doesn't really count as cabbage!
Pair it with buttery white bread... mmmm.


And, I'm enjoying the work of Sebastian Schonheit, a funky designer who takes knitting to the next level! Those needles must be, what, six feet long?


Nap time!

Business Lunch

Inspired by Mareika's art (in the post below), I went on a quest for more artists who have fun with business suits in their work.

(It's one of those days where I want to create... well, where I want to paint an exact replica of everything Mareika ever made, but know I can't... but instead, I'm still looking at what delights others have on offer!)

Business Man by retrosprout
There's something about eyes this far apart that really appeals to me. It gives the little business man such a sadness, and I suppose I want to loosen his little tie and tell him it'll be all right. Great colours... I love the blue cloud overlapping his face. Oh, and please note the RED dots!

It would be even tougher to get out of bed in the morning, I imagine, if you had to unicycle to work! But this bear has got it down. He's all neatly dressed, with his fur brushed, too!

I love art that uses book pages as a base, and here the business men really bring life to the printed words... they are so energetic! It's almost like an office version of Cirque De Soliel, with Mr. Tight-rope-walker, and the Leapers!

Now, to get down to business myself...
