Last week I wrote about flooding the kitchen. This week it was fire. A pork loin steak I was grilling at high temperature exploded and shot a large chunk of fat onto the grill element where it burst into flames, shooting fire upwards into the air where it got fiercer and bigger. The flames then ignited the whole grill tray, and it seemed it was never going to stop, but it burnt itself out once I removed the flaming tray and no harm was done except soot up the front of the oven and a scorched towel. The pork was delicious, by the way. So, water last week, fire this week - what next? Earth and wind - a hurricane of mud, perhaps.
Aside from kitchen incompetence, I did get some work done. I embellished the Happy Days lettering to make it more fun and give it a touch of boho. I am currently working on illustrations which I can’t share yet, but here is a scene depicting an expanse of sky with little puffy rain clouds, a mysterious apparition, and daisies. The main characters and clues as to location etc have been omitted, but I thought there was something special about the way the image stands just like this. I am also developing new hand lettering for the same project, something I love doing; and I began working on a pattern of wands, stars and moons.
Until next week, be safe in your kitchens, folks! - and as always,
Thanks for visiting, see you next week!
