Easter Sunday Lunch

Easter Sunday Lunch

Decided on slow cooked lamb shanks in Guinness and purée for Easter lunch.

A bit of prep and then into the slow cooker, looks impressive, but not that much effort. The best kind of lunch 😊

Chopping the onions trying not to cry too much 😊

Browning the lamb shanks.

Into the slow cooker and ready to ‘walk away’.

Procreate Tutorial Four

The last tutorial was fun, gave a hint to the animation side of things. Makes me wonder about their Procreate Dreams app, but I think I’ll stick to getting a handle on regular drawing before I think of animation 😊

Tomato Soup

I remember being quite bored with all the soups my mom made, then, once I was on my own I noticed how many soups I ended up making 😊

Most of the time I don’t really follow a strict recipe, although for this tomato one I use a Bobby Flay recipe I found online ages ago. The only real change is that I use an immersion blender, it saves a lot of cleaning.

Needed a lot of tomatoes so grabbed some from Costco. After some roasting I finished off the recipe on the stove, blended everything and it was ready to serve.

Procreate Tutorial 3

Next tutorial, I think the pause button is getting to be my most used button 😊

Ferry Doodles - Mountains

Passing the time on the ferry by doodling some mountains. Used the regular pencil brush for his.

Purple Flower

Since there was a sale I decided to grab some watercolour brushes too. Followed Bardot’s short tutorial to get a sense of how they work.
