Hey mom, we made cookies for you! Ooh, what kind are they? Chocolate surprise! They're not Earth Chocolate, are they? That natural stuff dosn't taste very good.

*

They really are Earth Chocolate, aren't they? Of course they are. That's the surprise.

Thank you to Ruby for thinking of this one!

Due to a change in life, I find myself unable to make Royal pillows any longer. I still have several large ones and several smaller ones in stock, and I would like to find good homes for them. While I am unable to deliver in time for Christmas, these pillows might make a lovely gift for the princess in your life who may be having a birthday coming up.

To get a pillow of your own please visit my shop at L Bowman Studios.

Carrots

Hey, what's up with this? You didn't even wash the dirt off this carrot you gave me?

*

You mean that Earth chocolate? Oh yeah. Yum!

Toby recently figured out where carrots come from, and I had to quickly harvest the whole crop if I wanted to have any myself.

Carrots with Earth chocolate.

(Using the Vibrant Color setting on my camera didn’t change their appearance much at all, did it?)

When I sliced the big carrot into coins, they were as big as the palm of my hand.

Don’t worry, carrots. I’ll get to you next.

Toby Makes Dinner

You're making dinner tonight? Sure am! What are we having?
Poo Helper. And mommy is OK with that? She said she's tire of cooking and whatever I make will be great.
Hey Toby, what's for dessert? Earth chocolate! Ooh, that sounds so natural and earth-friendly!
She has no idea what earth chocolate is, does she? And that's my problem, how?

Earth Chocolate

Cairn terrier puppy stuffs himself with all sorts of chocolate.
Toby! You're not eating dirt again, are you? Nooo....?

I went to the store the other day to find that the cost of a loaf of my bread has risen to $9.19. Needless to say, on top of everything else I have to prepare from scratch, I’m now baking my own bread as well.

Before you wax nostalgic about the tactile joys of kneading dough, I eat a rice-based diet. The less you handle it, the better. Baking bread with a non-glutinous grain is more of a series of science experiment than something you remember doing by your loving grandmother’s side.

If I could get Toby to do even part of the cooking, it would make life so much easier. Sadly, he just eats the ingredients.

Cook whatever you want, I’m taking a nap.
