Acorn Squash
This was a lot of fun to draw. I like acorn squash and I should really use it more in my cooking. There is something really satisfying about scooping out those seeds!
Autumn Salad
John and I have been trying to be very careful and eat healthier foods. We occasionally indulge in not so healthy foods, but ever since we discovered the Brown Derby Cobb Salad at Hollywood Studios, we realized how easy it was to make a salad a meal, and get a ton of veggies in ourContinue reading “Autumn Salad”
