Using my pretty new blue dutch oven was the ticket for making the chicken yummy. I'm so glad I forked out the big bucks for it.
Here are the first few pieces after they came out of the pot. Couldn't wait to taste it. Ree's recipe calls for cayenne pepper, which I added and then later regretted. But I wouldn't have known if I hadn't tried it.
Today, the Goose and I tackled Harmony Art Mom's Sketch Tuesday assignment - Something Associated with Teatime.
I didn't expect to have company as I picked up my sketchbook and pencils and told her what I was doing. She jumped right in.
I chose to keep it simple, concentrating on shapes and shading. I didn't want to bog myself down with complicated patterns and colors.
Kate was undaunted, choosing a pretty little teacup and saucer with a flower pattern. She joined me at the table and went right to work.
She is quite the perfectionist, working and reworking her lines.
She spent twice as much time on her drawing as I did. She wanted to get it just right!
Had to throw in a picture of the dog. He was keeping us company, wondering when I was going to stop fooling around and feed him!
Still hard at work long after I had stopped!
Ta-da! The finished product! She decided to add in some detail on the saucer because she didn't think it looked right without something there. Not too bad girl, not too bad.
