Mother's Day Card - process

I made banana bread last night and brownies this morning – a long bar tin and a heart-shaped tin of fudgy brownies with white chocolate chips stirred in, and talked to my sister’s boyfriend and did a brush sketch of some crockery (top left, below).

Some friends of my sister called in, so we had fresh hot brownies and toasted banana bread with butter and tea, and I drew pictures and played hangman and did maths with their kids (“will you please write some plus and minus problems for me?”). After the tide of people abated, I scanned and coloured sketch on the computer and printed the final picture (top right) as a mother’s day card. Deb is on her way over now for tea and brownies.

Oh! And the cover for the Worlds Next Door anthology is up, and looks great! http://editormum.livejournal.com/238277.html
